Case report Distinctive spinal changes in two patients with unusual forms of autosomal dominant endosteal hyperostosis: a case series Ali Al Kaissi , Franz Varga , Shahin Zandieh , Klaus Klaushofer and Franz Grill
Journal of Medical Case Reports 2007, 1:142
Endosteal hyperostosis was encountered in a 26-year-old-man and his 6-month-old daughter. Both the father and his daughter presented with fractures. Odontoid process hyperplasia, and progressive sclerosis of the posterior spinal elements, was the other significant features.

Definition Synovitis Acne -- commonly involving the face and upper back. Pustulosis -- usually involving the palms of the hands and/or soles of the feet (palmo-plantar pustulosis). Hyperostosis Osteitis SAPHO syndrome is thought to comprise a spectrum of disorders that share some clinical, radiologic and pathologic characteristics. An entity known as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) was first described in 1972. Subsequently in 1978 several cases of CRMO were associated with clinical findings of palmoplantar pustulosis. Since then, a number of associations between skin conditions and osteoarticular disorders have been reported with a variety of different names including sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis, pustulotic arthro-osteitis, and acne-associated spondyloarthropathy. SAPHO was coined in 1987 and basically represents a spectrum of inflammatory osteitis which may or may not be associated with dermatologic pathology.
