Osteopoikilosis: Multiple Joint Involvement as an Incidental Imaging Finding in the Emergency Setting

Osteopoikilosis is a rare, benign sclerosing bone dysplasia with autosomal dominant inheritance. Characterized by multiple small, well-defined sclerotic bone islands, it is typically discovered incidentally on imaging. This report presents a case of incidental osteopoikilosis in a patient undergoing CT for suspected pulmonary embolism.

Abstract

Osteopoikilosis is a rare, benign sclerosing bone dysplasia with autosomal dominant inheritance. Characterized by multiple small, well-defined sclerotic bone islands, it is typically discovered incidentally on imaging. This report presents a case of incidental osteopoikilosis in a patient undergoing CT for suspected pulmonary embolism.
