Description: Radiology case 468-861 Male in his late teens with a chronic condition and recent painful joints.
The youth of the patient is indicated by the epiphyseal lines. There is a line of newbone that covers the metaphyses of tibia and fibula. The extra bone appears layered and is separated from the dense cortex by a thin line of low density. The process does not appear to involve the epiphyses. Otherwise bone architecture appears normal.
