Paget's disease of bone is more prevalent in populations of
northern European origin and is thought to be rare in
non-Caucasians. The population of the east end of London is
multi-cultural with 45% from ethnic minorities. We report the
case histories of eight non-Caucasian patients with Paget's
disease of bone.
Key words
Paget's disease of bone; non-Caucasians.
