Abstract
A case of melorheostosis that was first detected by bone scan during the staging evaluation of a patient with metastatic lung carcinoma is reported. The unique pattern of skeletal involvement of melorheostosis allowed its presumptive diagnosis on bone scan, with subsequent radiographic confirmation. A review of this disorder is presented.Entities:
