The clinical and histologic observations in an 18-year old male with osteopoikilosis are described. Twenty-four of the proband's relatives were roentgenographed; films were taken of their pelves, hips, knees and elbows. The father was found to have osteopoikilosis, but none of the others were affected.

It has been attempted to figure out how osteopoikilosis is transmitted by a study of the family data given in the literature. Though it is realized that these data are biased because of their selective nature, it is suggested that osteopoikilosis is inherited as an autosomal dominant disease.
