Abstract

Billiard-player's fingers: an unusual case of Paget's disease of bone Skeletal changes in Paget's disease of bone sometimes have an unusual distribution for which the cause is obscure.Observation during a recent study suggested that in some cases mechanical factors are important.'I report the case of a champion billiards player who developed Paget's disease at sites that clearly corresponded to lines of pressure created by aligning his cue.
