Sclerotome distribution of melorheostosis and multicentric fibromatosis

Skeletal Radiol. 1998 Nov;27(11):633-6. doi: 10.1007/s002560050449.

Abstract

A case of melorheostosis affecting the C7 sclerotome is described, in association with synchronous multicentric fibromatosis. The foci of fibromatosis also affected the C7 sclerotome, suggesting a similar underlying pathogenesis for both diseases.
