Osteomesopycnosis: the first report from Japan.

چکیده
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.
