Diffuse and severe cortical thickening of the right humerus with general heterogeneity of the bony texture. No pathological fractures. Appearances are typical for Paget disease.
Case Discussion
The humerus is less affected by Paget disease than many bones:
- pelvis (72% patients)
- lumbar spine (58%)
- femur (55%)
- thoracic spine (45%)
- skull (42%)
- tibia (35%)
