Abstract EN
Nonbacterial osteitis is a rare autoinflammatory disease.
Often it is mistaken for a tumor or osteomyelitis.
We present a case of a twelve-year-old girl referred to our hospital because of a lesion of the right clavicle.
The differential diagnoses were sarcoma, osteitis, and Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
After biopsy the diagnosis nonbacterial osteitis (NBO) was established.
Treatment of choice is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
This case report gives a complete follow-up of the disease, showing the pitfalls of the diagnosis.
