On Yaşında Bir Olguda Ön Fontanel Açıklığı: Piknodizostoz

Year 2007, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 33 - 37, 01.06.2007

Abstract

Piknodizostoz boy kısalığı, osteoskleroz, sık kırık, distal falanksların akroosteolizi, klavikula displazisi, sütur kapanmasında gecikme ve kafatası deformitesi ile karakterize olan sklerozan bir iskelet displazisidir. Bu yazıda piknodizostoz tanısı alan on yaşındaki erkek olgu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle takdim edilmektedir. Hastanın boy kısalığı, açık fontanel, kısa güdük eller, yüksek damak ve tipik yüz görünümü yanı sıra açık kranyal süturları, geniş açılı mandibula ve yaygın iskelet sklerozunu kapsayan radyolojik özellikleri vardı. Gecikmiş fontanel açıklığının sebepleri arasında nadir de olsa piknodizostoz olabileceğini düşünmekteyiz. Piknodizostoz ayırıcı tanısının yapılması hastalığın prognozu ve tedavinin belirlenmesi açısından önemlidir.

DELAYED OPEN ANTERIOR FONTANEL IN A 10-YEAR-OLD BOY: PYCNODYSOSTOSIS

Year 2007, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 33 - 37, 01.06.2007

Abstract

Pycnodysostosis is a sclerosing skeletal dysplasia characterized with short stature, osteosclerosis, frequent fractures, acroosteolysis of the distal phalanges, clavicular dysplasia, and skull deformities with delayed suture closure. In this paper a 10-year-old boy with pycnodysostosis is reported. He had typical facial features, short stature, open fontanel, short stubby hands, high arched palate as well as radiological features including open cranial sutures, obtuse angle of mandible, and generalized skeletal sclerosis. We think that even pycnodysostosis is infrequent; it may be one from the causes of delayed open fontanel. The making of differential diagnosis of pycnodysostosis is important in the prognosis of disease and determining of treatment
