Abstract

Oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by bone and soft tissue tumors. The characteristic clinical, metabolic, and imaging findings are reviewed, as is the radiologist's role in evaluation and diagnosis. New insight into the pathophysiology of oncogenic osteomalacia is also presented.
