Abstract:
Osteopathia Striata is a rare developmental abnormality characterized by striation of the skeleton, especially the metaphyses of the long bones. It has been seen on only a few occasions since it was first described by Voorhoeve in 1924. This case, a nine year old boy, showed well marked striation throughout bones of right lower extremity and pelvis and so justifies the title of paper.
