Osteopathia striata

Osteopathia striata, also known as Voorhoeve disease, is a rare entity characterized by fine linear striations about 2- to 3-mm-thick, visible by radiographic examination, in the metaphyses and diaphyses of long or flat bones.[1] It is often asymptomatic, and is often discovered incidentally.
