Core Tip
Core Tip: This study presents the first detailed description of osteopathia striata with cranial stenosis (OSCS) occurring in conjunction with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Arthritis may represent a manifestation of the underlying skeletal dysplasia, but the relationship between JIA and OSCS remains unclear. This case may contribute to raising awareness of OSCS and highlights the need for further research to explore potential associations between this rare skeletal disorder and autoimmune joint diseases such as JIA.
