Abstract

Osteopoikilosis is an osteosclerotic dysplasia of an unknown origin, and this malady is both extremely rare and hereditary and sporadic in nature. It is sometimes asymptomatic and incidentally diagnosed with radiologic images. A familial history and concomitant disease might also be present. In this study, we report on a 31-year-old woman who suffers from pelvic pain and she was diagnosed as having osteopoikilosis around both hip joints by the radiological images. We also review the relevant medical literature.

Keywords: Osteopoikilosis, Both hip joints
