osteopoikilosis, osteopecilia, bone density, spotted bone, cancellous.Abstract
Osteopoikilosis is a rare bone anomaly usually benign which may be confused with other severe primary diseases or dangerous metastatic bone lesions. We present one new case describing typical radiological findings with no clinical signs or other associations. No malignant transformation or other complications happened in the last ten years.
Osteopoikilosis is found in most cases incidentally, and in most cases is not associated with other serious medical complications. Screening of family members may be considered.Downloads
