“…One might speculate that the involvement of these latter cell types contributed to the local tissue alterations that occurred in and led the epiphyseal stippling at multiple sites. Stippling has been previously noted in ML-II [Lemaitre et al, 1978;Poznanski, 1994;Beck et al, 1995;Taybi and Lachman, 1996]. Perhaps the epiphyseal stippling seen prenatally in the severe cases is also present in the less severe cases but resolves prior to or shortly after birth.…”

“…Along with these findings, stippling calcifications of the calcaneum and sacrococcygeal regions were noted (Panel A). The last findings are characteristic on ML II [1,2]. The hemogram showed vacuole-like inclusions in some peripheral blood lymphocytes of the patients (Panel C).…”

“…ML II is usually presents between 6 and 12 months of age with a clinical phenotype resembling Hurler syndrome and a radiological picture of dysostosis multiplex. When ML II is severe enough to be detected in the newborn period, the radiological changes have been described as similar to multiple pathological fractures of osteogenesis imperfecta [1], or rickets because of transient neonatal hyperparathyroidism [2].…”

“…In Hurler's syndrome the radiology becomes char acteristic after several months, whereas in I-cell disease, the abnormalities are first observed in the neonatal period itself. [5] The clinical course is progressive and these children usually die by the age of four. I-cell disease is universally a fatal ge netic disorder.…”
