Abstract

The coexistence of mixed sclerosing bone dysplasia and dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica is a rare anomaly. This combination of abnormalities has not been previously reported. The clinical, radiographic, and pathologic features of this condition are discussed and the methods of treatment of articular complications are reviewed.
