Abstract

Paget disease of bone, also known as osteitis deformans, is a nonmalignant disease of bone that causes accelerated and abnormal bone remodeling. It is the second most common bone disorder, osteoporosis being first. It is a localized disorder, meaning it affects just 1 or several bones in the body. Paget disease of bone is characterized by enlarged and deformed bones and occurs mainly in the axial skeleton. The cause of the disease is still not known entirely, but genetics are certain to be involved, and viral factors also are suspected.
