Melorheostosis of the foot: a case report and review of the literature.
Nebraska Medical Journal 1996 January
As seen in the case presented, melorheostosis is a bony dysplasia showing irregular wavy lines of hyperostotic bone. Clinically, patients present variably, ranging from incidental radiographic discovery of the syndrome to severe deformities and pain. Subsequently, diagnosis is often delayed or missed. Treatment is usually symptomatic, although surgical correction of deformities is often pursued. Unfortunately, these surgeries may be complicated with frequent vascular problems and deformities usually recur. Thus, treatment of melorheostosis should be individualized based on the patient's lifestyle, progression of disease and age.
