Two patients with unusual features of Pagets disease are reported.
In one patient a circumferential focal and periosteally based mass of Pagets disease presented as a mass lesion superimposed on the sclerotic phase of Pagets disease in the distal femur. Biopsy of the mass showed Pagets disease without neoplasia. The mass has remained unchanged roentgenographically in a 2 year period.
In a second patient, a lesion occurred in the mid-portion of the tibia and showed features of the early and radiolucent phase of Pagets disease.
In a 4 year period, the lesion has progressed to a more sclerotic phase and to occupy the proximal end of the tibia as well as its mid and lower portions.
