## TL;DR

A case report describes a rare bone condition in a 47-year-old man using HDP SPECT/CT imaging.

## Contribution

This case highlights the use of HDP SPECT/CT for characterizing proximal tibiofibular synostosis.

## Key findings

- HDP SPECT/CT revealed proximal tibiofibular synostosis in a patient with a history of repetitive microtraumas.
- The imaging findings aid in understanding the condition's pathogenesis and treatment planning.

## Abstract

We report the HDP SPECT/CT findings in a case of proximal tibiofibular synostosis in a 47-year-old man with a history of repetitive microtraumas from former sports activities. Characterization of this rare entity using 99mTc-HDP SPECT/CT is essential for understanding its pathogenesis and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
