Osteopoikilosis, a sclerosing bone dysplasia, is an asymptomatic incidental finding characterised by multiple bone islands. Although it requires no treatment there can be diagnostic uncertainty as appearances can be similar to osteoblastic metastases or metabolic disorders such as Paget disease. We present a case of osteopoikilosis in a patient with familial adenopolyposis and discuss the clinical presentation, image findings and key considerations in diagnosis of this benign entity.

We report a family with three individuals affected by BOS, two of whom manifested clinical and histopathological peculiarities, presenting with a depressed indurated plaque as the main cutaneous manifestation instead of the classic connective tissue nevi. Notable elastorrhexis was present in both biopsies.
