Definition/Description[edit | edit source]
Osteopoikilosis, also known as ‘Spotted Bone Disease’ is benign autosomal dominant bone disorder that characterised by small areas (Islands) of sclerotic bony lesions. Osteopoikilosis mainly appears in long bones, carpal and tarsal bones, the pelvis, sacrum and scapulae.
with an estimated incidence of 1:50.000, This disorder may appear in any ages between 15 and 60 years, with slightly more males than females affected. Osteopoikilosis is usually not symptomatic, although, it has been reported that about 20% of patients will have some degree of articular pain or joint effusion [1][2]
