Proliferative periostitis is a rare condition that can affect children and adolescents. It is characterized by the successive deposition of layers of bone caused by low-virulence infection or chronic inflammatory stimulation. The purpose of this paper is to report a case of proliferative periostitis in a pediatric patient, emphasizing the clinical and radiographic aspects as well as the therapeutic management.

Aging predisposes individuals to reduced bone mass and fragility fractures, which are costly and linked to high mortality. Understanding how aging affects fracture healing is essential for developing therapies to enhance bone regeneration in older adults. During the inflammatory phase of fracture healing, immune cells are recruited to the injury site as periosteal skeletal stem/progenitor cells (pSSPCs) rapidly proliferate and differentiate into osteochondral lineages, allowing for fibrocartilaginous callus formation and complete bone healing.

A 1-year-old male neutered ferret (Mustela putorius furo) was evaluated for an abnormal left cubital joint. Radiographs demonstrated a proliferative osseous lesion of the left proximal antebrachium. Computed tomography confirmed a large thin-walled expansile osseous lesion of the left proximal radius and identified multifocal proliferative lesions of the axial spine, two of which caused spinal cord compression.

Foot disorders are responsible for up to 5% of confinement losses. Identifying the cause of lameness and applying the correct treatment are crucial measures. The possibility of determining the probable origins of digital lesions, their extension, and assistance in cases in which it was not possible to reach a definitive clinical diagnosis demonstrates that the radiographic evaluation provides information of great importance on cattle digits.
