[Osteopoikilosis: report of 3 cases and review of the literature].
Anales de Medicina Interna : Organo Oficial de la Sociedad Española de Medicina Interna 2000 January
Osteopoikilosis, osteopathia condensans disseminata, is a rare hereditary autosomal dominant sclerosing bone dysplasia, more common in males. The diagnosis is usually made incidentally from radiographs which show multiple, small, well-defined, variably shaped and widely distributed (over the skeleton) sclerotic areas. The involvement is symmetrical, and the predilected locations are the phalanges of the hand, carpal bones, metacarpals, foot phalanges, metatarsals, tarsal bones, ilium, femur, radio and sacrum. It must be distinguished from melorheostosis, osteopathia striata and fundamentally from osteoblastic bone metastases, on the basis of the clinical, radiological (roentgenographs, computed tomography and magnetic resonance) and radionuclide scanning characteristics. Histologically, there are focal condensations of compact lamellar bone within the spongiosa. We report three cases of osteopoikilosis and review the literature. Two cases didn't have affectation in phalanges of the hand, which had not been previously reported, to our knowledge.
