The history of Paget's disease of boneReview articles

T. Hála

Paget's disease of bone was first described by SirJames Paget who considered it to be a newly described disease entity. However, archaelogical findings suggest that the disease had been present in humans long before that, with localization of the defect similar to that commonly found in modern times. The text also contains a description of a patient written byJames Paget himself, proving his abili­ ties as a diagnostician and physician.
