Condensing osteitis of the clavicle in a man.

Condensing osteitis of the clavicle is a rare, benign, usually painful condition leading to sclerosis of the medial end of the clavicle. In the English language literature, this has only been reported in women since its original description by Brower et al. in 1974 [1]. We report a clavicular lesion occurring in a man that is clinically, radiographically, and histologically identical to described cases of condensing osteitis.
