Light micrographs comparing pycnodysostosis and normal bone
Light micrographs comparing pycnodysostosis and normal bone. Bone biopsies taken from a normal individual (left) and a child with pycnodysostosis (right) demonstrate that both cortical and trabecular bone are excessively thick in pycnodysostosis. The marrow space is narrowed but the cellular elements are preserved in the disorder (von Kossa staining; ×12.5 magnification).
