title: [Van Neck-Odelberg disease. Report of two cases].
abstract: Osteochondritis ischiopubica or van Neck-Odelberg disease is characterized by atypical ossification of the ischiopubic synchondrosis. Clinical symptoms are usually pain, limping and limited range of motion of the hip joint. Radiologic images may be confused with the possibility of fracture, tumor or inflammation. In some cases it may be difficult to set up the accurate diagnosis, and during the diagnostic process it is essential that van Neck-Odelberg disease should be considered. In this paper the authors draw attention to this rare disorder and they present the history of two patients who posed diagnostic difficulties.
