Melorheostosis is a benign sclerosing bone dysplasia, characterized clinically by chronic pain and soft-tissue contractures when symptomatic. The presentation could be monostotic, polyostotic or monomelic, mainly lower limb. This entity has been related to a functional loss mutation in the LEMD3 gene, as well as osteopoikilosis. Imaging findings include linear or curvilinear cortical thickening in tubular bones resembling candle melting wax. In this case, the patient presented chronic calf pain.
