Presentation
Although bone crises are common in GD, they rarely are the presenting and only symptom of the disease, as in our case. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Pain
After excluding other possible causes of acute pain/inflammation of the hip joint (e.g., osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, sickle cell disease, haemato-oncologic disorders) the coexistence of an extremely painful hip requiring narcotics, a mild splenomegaly [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hed-lasers and Medlouxx t-clt led Pioneering in the treatment of osteoarthritis, arthritis, pain therapy and laser acupuncture Simultaneous treatment with 5 lasers with stripped cables can stimulate 10 acupuncture points Scientific and clinical tests [chinanature.be]

- Inflammation
Indeed, it is thought that the bone marrow infiltration by Gaucher cells, that is, lipid-engorged machrophages, may cause a localized inflammation leading to infarction and osteonecrosis, osteosclerosis, and osteolysis [5]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Fever
As known, bone crises are acute episodes of severe skeletal pain and fever accompanied by leucocytosis and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rates. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Skeletal disease may occur later for the infiltration of bone marrow by macrophages infiltration and bone resorption: bone involvement may be heterogeneously manifested by symptoms ranging from bone crisis to avascular necrosis, osteoporosis and defect [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Osteophyte
Classification Plain radiograph Different grading schemes are described for plain radiographs of the hip: grade 0: normal grade 1: possible joint space narrowing and subtle osteophytes grade 2: definite joint space narrowing, defined osteophytes and some [radiopaedia.org]
- Hip Pain
After excluding other possible causes of acute pain/inflammation of the hip joint (e.g., osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, sickle cell disease, haemato-oncologic disorders) the coexistence of an extremely painful hip requiring narcotics, a mild splenomegaly [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Moreover, the early recognition of GD can start safe and effective treatment with enzyme replacement which can decrease morbidity and reduce as far as possible the visceral and skeletal involvement. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of inflammatory bone disease in GD remains poorly understood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
