Abstract

SPINEL BEJARANO, Néstor et al. Sclerosing bone diseases with involvement of long bones: report of two cases and literature review. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.3, pp.234-246. ISSN 0121-8123.

Sclerosing bone disorders are a rare group of diseases characterized by increased bone mass in both long and flat bones. Traditionally, plain radiography has allowed the diagnosis of these diseases identifying characteristic patterns of bone involvement. At present, the molecular and genetic characterization of these diseases has provided a better understand of their pathophysiology and phenotypic expression, however plain radiography continues to have an important role in the recognition of sclerosing bone disorders.

Keywords : osteosclerosis; hyperostosis; sclerosing bone disorders; long bones.
