A young boy presented with increasing lower limb pain and swelling for a month. At the time of his hospitalisation, he was unable to walk. We report the patient's clinical journey with clinical commentary throughout, highlighting the importance that uncommon diseases may be diagnosed with a high index of suspicion and thorough history taking.
