We report a 26-year-old male who was initially diagnosed as osteopetrosis and referred for endocrine evaluations. But due to specific clinical features supported by investigations, we diagnosed the case as sclerosteosis. The patient was managed by a multidisciplinary team approach. Sclerosteosis may be erroneously diagnosed as osteopetrosis. However, many unique features make it a separate entity.
