case_images: A hematological (Chemray 120, Rayto, Shenzhen, China) and biochemical (MS4 Vet, Melet Schloesing, Osny, France) panel, hormonal determinations, ionized calcium, and urinalysis were performed (Table 1). A whole body radiograph showed deformity, double cortical line, marked trabecular pattern, and loss of definition of the medullary cavity in virtually all of the long bones (Figure 1).
case_images: Ventrodorsal view of the rear third of a 4.5-year-old guinea pig with fibrous osteodystrophy in which hyperostosis, sclerosis, and partial remodeling are observed in previously decalcified bones. The long-term treatment was based on performing dental trimming on demand and maintaining a diet as balanced as possible.

case_images: Three years later, the guinea pig had a good quality of life according to the owner, analytical values were stable (Table 1), and radiographs showed hyperostosis, sclerosis, and partial remodeling of the previously affected bone (Figure 2).
