Paget’s disease of bone is a metabolic bone disorder with male predominance and characterized by increased bone turnover. Recent literature indicates a reduction in incidence and severity. We report a 55 years old female patient who was admitted with knee pain, and whose pelvis x-ray demonstrated pathological features. She was investigated with preliminary diagnoses of Paget’s disease of bone, osteosclerotic bone metastasis and primary bone tumor. Histopathological examination of bone biopsy confirmed Paget’s disease of bone and Paget’s disease of bone is reviewed.
