Popis: Osteopoikilosis, a sclerosing bone dysplasia, is an asymptomatic incidental finding characterised by multiple bone islands. Although it requires no treatment there can be diagnostic uncertainty as appearances can be similar to osteoblastic metastases or metabolic disorders such as Paget disease. We present a case of osteopoikilosis in a patient with familial adenopolyposis and discuss the clinical presentation, image findings and key considerations in diagnosis of this benign entity.
