Abstract Melorheostosis is a benign sclerosing dysplasia with a very unusual and characteristic roentgenographic appearance. We reported a patient with melorheostosis in the left lower extremity followed up for 14 years. Although the extraosseous lesions only slightly enlarged, the bone scintigraphy showed the activity of the metabolism to be still high.
