Bone Scintigraphy in Engelmann-Camurati Disease

Engelmann-Camurati Disease is a rare bone disorder with low incidence (1:1 million births). In this article, we describe the case of a patient who presented with pain in the upper and lower limbs. She had an important anxiety-depressive component in relation to pain and limitation of physical activity, crying, and anxiety symptoms. We carried out a bone scan that showed abnormal uptake of tracer in the diaphysis of long bones. Radiographic findings included cortical symmetrical thickening in the same locations, and general biochemistry was abnormal.
