| Authors: | Margaret H Pui Hwai Loong Kong Hui Fen Choo |
| Abstract: | Sclerotic and lytic bone changes of tuberous sclerosis (TS) can mimic bone metastases. We report a case of bone metastases from bronchogenic carcinoma in a patient with TS bone changes. Bone scintigraphy and magnetic resonance imaging are useful in distinguishing the TS bone lesions from bone metastases. |
