Contribution of hybrid imaging in benign osteopetrosis: A case report and litterature review

Although rare, benign osteopetrosis should be recognized because it causes bone integrity impairment, leading to various bone complications, including spontaneous fractures. SPECT/CT plays an important role in assessing the extent of bone lesions and identifying complications. As highlighted, this case underscores the utility of combining functional and anatomical imaging modalities in one examination, which decreases the time to diagnosis and offers a comprehensive assessment of benign osteopetrosis.
