Abstract

Osteopoikilosis is a rare autosomal dominant or sporadic osteosclerotic dysplasias characterised by homogenous, small, multiple, discrete, symmetric round or ovoid radio densities in cancellous bones. Recognition of this asympomatic condition by plain radiograph makes other expensive investigations unnecessary. Here we present a case report of 28 yrs-old male incidentally found to have osteopoikilosis.

Keywords
