Hello suhaid,
the histopathology report is in your favour as it suggest a aneurysmal bone cyst that means the disease in your bone has very little chance of spreading in other bones or recurring again in calcaneum. I would say that removal of bone cyst and bone graft should have been the first treatment but any way now you are completely cured. I hope now you will not feel any pain in your heel.
