A Rare Cause of Polyarthralgia: Osteopoikilosis

Osteopoikilozis veya benekli kemik hastalığı, etiyolojisi bilinmeyen nadir bir kemik displazisidir. Kemik olgunlaşma sürecinde anormallik ile karakterizedir ve sıklıkla radyolojik incelemede tesadüfen bulunur. Otozomal dominant kalıtıma sahip olan bu hastalık, düzenli sınırları olan çok sayıda, dairesel veya oval, sklerotik lezyonlara sahiptir. Sıklıkla asemptomatik olmasına rağmen nadiren poliartralji ve eklemlerde şişlik görülebilir. Bu olguda poliartralji yakınması olan hastada etiyolojinin osteopoikiloz gibi nadir bir sendrom olabileceğini göstermeyi amaçladık.

Poliartraljinin Nadir Bir Sebebi: Osteopoikilozis

Osteopoikilosis or spotted bone disease is a rare bone dysplasia of unknown etiology. It is characterized by an abnormality in bone maturation process and often found incidentally on radiologic examination. This disease, which has an autosomal dominant inheritance, has numerous, annular or oval, sclerotic lesions with regular borders. Although it is frequently asymptomatic, rarely polyarthralgia and joint swelling may occur. In this case, we aimed to show that the etiology may be a rare syndrome such as osteopoikilosis in the patient with the complaint of polyarthralgia.
