Progressive Diaphyseal Dysplasia (Subscribe)  

This report suggests that anticipation occurs in progressive diaphyseal dysplasia and widens the disease spectrum of this concept to bone dysplasias. A dynamic mutation with trinucleotide repeat expansion may or may not be the cause of this osteochondrodysplasia of dense bone with unknown pathogenesis. The search for the molecular explanation...

Synonyms Progressive Diaphyseal Dysplasia CED Engelmann Disease Diaphyseal Dysplasia Camurati-Engelmann General Discussion Camurati-Engelmann disease is a rare genetic disorder characterized by progressive widening and malformation of the shafts of the long bones (diaphyseal dysplasia). Major symptoms may include bone pain, particularly in the legs; skeletal abnormalities; and/or weakness and underdevelopment (hypoplasia) of various muscles. Pain and... Highly Reputable

Camurati-Engelmann Disease [Progressive Diaphyseal Dysplasia] Summary Disease characteristics. Camurati-Engelmann disease (CED) is characterized by hyperostosis of the long bones and the skull, proximal muscle weakness, severe limb pain, a wide-based, waddling gait, and joint contractures. Facial features such as frontal bossing, enlargement of the mandible, proptosis, and cranial nerve impingement...

Engelmann's disease (progressive diaphyseal dysplasia) Brief history: Thirty-eight-year-old woman with a known history of a skeletal dysplasia. Bone scan images MIR Teaching file case bs109

Engelmann’s disease is a rare condition with usual onset in childhood. The presenta-tion is mainly with muscular weakness and waddling gait. Radiologically, it is a prog-ressive diaphyseal dysplasia extending from the center of tubular bone towards the peri-phery. Diverse clinical presentations have been described in the literature. We report a...
