We describe three sisters in a family who presented with a clinical form of osteomesopycnosis which is a rare, benign osteosclerotic bone disorder limited to the axial skeleton. It must be distinguished from other osteosclerotic conditions which carry a worse prognosis. This is the first report of the condition in a Japanese family, and we believe it to be the first to be identified in Asian races.
我们描述了一个家族中的三姐妹,她们表现出一种骨致密症的临床症状,这是一种罕见的、良性的骨硬化性骨病,仅限于中轴骨骼。它必须与其他预后较差的骨硬化性疾病相区分。这是日本家族中该病症的首例报告,我们认为这也是亚洲人种中首例被确诊的病例。
