    I googled it and that term is sort of vague and non-specific..cervical refers to the neck bones and osteitis refers to inflammation of the bones (without saying what the cause is)…many causes according to wikipedia and an additional link that I found…possibly more causes than even found in these two original links… (lists several possible causes of osteitis)

    Types and some causes of osteitis-

    1.) Hyperparathyroidism, leading to Von Recklinghausen’s disease of bone-
    (Osteitis fibrosa cystica, also known as Von Recklinghausen’s disease of bone or Brown tumor..caused because of secondary to hyperparathyroidism) (osteitis fibrosa cystica, also known as Von Recklinghausen’s disease of bone or Brown tumor ..from secondary to hyperparathyroidism)

    Clinical trials for osteitis fibrosa+&submit=Search&cystic.ID=term&cystic.badWord=cystica&cystoma.ID=term&cystoma.badWord=cystica&cystine.ID=term&cystine.badWord=cystica&fibroma.ID=term&fibroma.badWord=fibrosa&fibrose.ID=term&fibrose.badWord=fibrosa&fibromas.ID=term&fibromas.badWord=fibrosa&fibroscan.ID=term&fibroscan.badWord=fibrosa&fibrous.ID=term&fibrous.badWord=fibrosa&fibroses.ID=term&fibroses.badWord=fibrosa (mostly McCune Albright, but one other one for fibrous dysplasia of bone , which von Recklinghausen’s is…)

    2.) Paget’s Disease (possible cause of Paget’s disease or osteitis deformans …scroll down for organizations) (paget’s disease organization) (Paget’s disease or osteitis deformans …need adobe reader) (Paget’s disease or osteitis deformans) (clinical trials for Paget’s disease..osteitis deformans)

    3.) McCune-Albright syndrome (possible cause of McCune Albright syndrome or Osteitis Fibrosa Disseminata or Fibrous dysplasia (monostotic, polyostotic McCune-Albright syndrome) …scroll down for organizations) (mccune albright or fibrous dysplasia syndrome) (magic foundations for children’s growth disorders…mccune albright syndrome or fibrous dyplasia syndrome) (go about a fourth of the way down the page to action taken or to be taken paragraph referring to fibrous dysplasia and genes)+&submit=Search (clinical trials for Mccune Albright syndrome)

    4.) Misc- (osteitis of pubic bone from physical stress) (possible cause from radiation…mentioned in first article…but second detailed article is missing) (osteitis of the molars) (possible cause from syphilis)
