Abstract

Engelmann's disease. Report of a case of osteopathia hyperostotica sclerotisans multiplex infantilis, the rarest of the congenital condensing osteodystrophies, with clinical, pathological, biochemical and radiographic findings. Its nature is discussed with special reference to its differential diagnosis from osteopetrosis and from the infantile cortical hyperostosis of Caffey and Silvermann.
