Summary
Bone disorders are extremely rare cause of stroke. Several bone disorders and abnormalities have been shown to be associated with stroke: osteoporosis, skull disorders (Osteopetrosis, Paget’s disease, and Craniosynostosis), skeletal abnormalities (Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, Schimke syndrome, and Camurati-Engelmann disease), bone tumors (osteochondromas and osteosarcoma), fibrocartilaginous and fat emboli, and orthopedics procedures.The relationship of these diseases with stroke has been shown, but mostly insufficiently elucidated yet. Bone diseases related stroke is highly plausible but only after other, more common causes, are ruled out
