“…Espinoza et al (1974) did find plasma cells in one synovium in an acute arthritis. Sherman (1959), in a sickle cell patient with aseptic necrosis, found some chronic inflammation and speculated on the possible role ofpannus. Fink (1968) also noted some plasma cells around conjunctival vessels in sickle cell patients.…”

“…This bone involvement usually indicates severe disease [39][40][41] and has been reported from different geographic locations [8,32,42,43] , which reflects that it is universal in the natural history of the disease and hence represents a major chronic morbidity that may need invasive management, which itself may carry more risk to the patient [44] .…”

Multiple pathologic fractures in a patient with sickle cell disease is rare; bone involvement is well documented in this disease, however multiple pathologic fractures as a complication are uncommon. We present a case involving a 19-month-old boy known to have sickle cell disease who developed multiple pathologic fractures as a complication of his disease. The patient was treated conservatively with excellent outcome.

“…Cystic rarefaction, osteosclerotic changes and destruction of the femoral head have been reported in cases of systemic disease, e.g. sickle-cell anemia (22,24) and Gaucher's disease (8,25). The changes have been unilateral and bilateral.…”
