Abstract
|
|
|
|
Intramedullary osteosclerosis is an uncommon benign condition characterized by endosteal new bone formation in long tubular bone of lower extremity and treatment as well as etiology is unknown. Due to the rarity of this disease, and because there is no specific clinical finding except leg pain, it is difficult to differentiate this entity from other causes presenting similar symptoms. We report on a case of intramedullary osteosclerosis mistaken for radiculopathy from lumbar disease with a review of the literature.
