[Axial osteosclerosis with autosomal dominant transmission: a new entity?]

The authors report on the case of a 26-year-old woman and three members of her family suffering from a benign condensing osteopathy, of dominant autosomic transmission, characterized mainly by a non homogenous hyperopacity of the spine and the pelvis, without alcaline hyperphosphatasemia, and which seems to them different from the condensing ostepathies described up to now.
