Skeletal Phenotype in Mulibrey Nanism, A Monogenic Skeletal Dysplasia With Fibrous Dysplasia. [PDF]
We present a cross‐sectional detailed radiographic evaluation of the skeletal phenotype in 33 patients, aged 4.5–48 years, with Mulibrey nanism (MUL). This study confirms MUL as a skeletal dysplasia with prenatal‐onset growth failure, slender bones, vertebral changes, and a high prevalence of fibrous dysplasia and fractures.

Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report. [PDF]
Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) is a scarce noncancerous bone condition characterized by the failure to form mature lamellar bone and arrest in the form of woven bone, resulting in deformities and functional limitations. Extreme forms of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia can lead to leontiasis ossea, an exceptionally uncommon presentation. We report a

Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia [PDF]
Summary A case of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia in a 5-year-old girl is reported. The diagnosis was made by the characteristic triad of predominantly unilateral bone lesions, precocious “puberty,” and unilateral skin pigmentation, and was substantiated by radiographic and pathologic examination of the bone lesions. The early onset of menses (second
