Idiopathic Multicentric Osteolysis

Abstract: Genetic, rheumatologic, immunologic, metabolic, and renal studies of a father and son with idiopathic multicentric osteolysis are reported. The disorder appeared through mutation. The father developed symptoms as an infant, his son at age 4 years and 9 months. Both have micrognathia and hypotelorism and were exceptionally tall during the symptomatic phase of their disease. Biopsies of the son's wrist showed normal synovium, encroachment on cartilage by fibrocellular tissue, and both osteoclastic resorption and… Show more

“…Associated abnormalities are found especially in the sporadic cases including facial features, spine deformities, clubfoot and pes cavus [24,32,34]. The unusual facial appearance includes frontal bossing, hyper-or hypotelorism, plathycephaly, maxillae hypoplasia, micrognathia, retrognathia, orbital hypoplasia, exopthalmus, prominent nasal bridge and high-arched palatum [6,32].…”

“…After obtaining written consent sanctioned by the Human Research Protection Office at the Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, we studied 8 unrelated children with MCTO at Shriners Hospital for Children, St. Louis, USA (SHC) during the past 36 years [Whyte et al, 1978; Wenkert et al, 2007; Wenkert et al, 2008; Goldfarb et al, 2012]. DNA was available for seven of eight probands.…”

“…Multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome (MCTO, OMIM # 166300), also called idiopathic multicentric osteolysis with nephropathy, is an autosomal dominant (AD) disorder often arising spontaneously and causing carpal-tarsal destruction and renal failure [Shurtleff et al, 1964; Whyte et al, 1978]. We have cared collectively for nine unrelated children with sporadic (n = 8) or familial (n = 1) MCTO during the past 36 years [Whyte et al, 1978; Wenkert et al, 2007; Wenkert et al, 2008; Goldfarb et al, 2012].…”
