    Acute bilateral symmetrical pathologic fractures of the lateral tibial plateaus in a patient with Gaucher's disease.

    Abstract

    A 41-year-old woman with Gaucher's disease developed bone crises of both proximal tibiae and of her spine concurrent with a syndrome of severe gastroenteritis. Three to six months later the bilateral symmetrical pathologic collapse of both lateral tibial plateaus occurred. The unusual occurrence of multiple bone crises with the gastroenteritis suggests a common causative agent, possibly a severe viremia.
