In myelofibrosis, the skeletal bones present radiologically as normal or with osteosclerotic or osteoporotic changes.

Zusammenfassung:	In myelofibrosis, the skeletal bones present radiologically as normal or with osteosclerotic or osteoporotic changes. Lytic lesions are very rare and when present are usually associated with osteosclerosis. We report on a case of a patient with myelofibrosis exhibiting diffuse purely osteolytic lesions.
