The Clinical Rehabilitation and Cathepsin K Gene Analysis of a Turkish Family With Pycnodysostosis

Abstract

Pycnodysostosis (PKND) is a rare, autosomal recessive disease
characterized by short stature, severe bone fragility exophthalmus
and oral manifestations such as micrognathia. It usually
demonstrates typical craniofacial deformities, such as hypoplastic
midface, anterior cross-bite, grooved palate and dental crowding.
The aim of this case report is to report the rehabilitation and
analyze the cathepsin K for pycnodysostosis under reported cases
of three siblings with PKND. A family with 5 siblings, 3 effected
and 2 non – effected, were examined clinically and radiologically,
and restorative treatments and protective applications were carried
out in the effected members. To clarify the underlying reason,
cathepsin K was amplified and sequenced directly by using
specific primers. All the affected members carried L7P variation as
homozygous state, whereas unaffected had the heterozygous state
of the same condition. Early diagnosis and treatment is important
with PKND patients, since bone fractures easily occur during
dental treatment and limited mouth opening makes it difficult to
access the treated area. Frequent recalls should be planned for
PKND patients. Regular oral care and early preventive treatments
ensure the patients a better life quality. Also, we suggest that L7P
variation of cathepsin K may be a diagnostic criterion for PKND.
