Syndrome Hutchinson-Gilford (progeria)
Gatchinson-Guildford syndrome or progeria (senile dwarfism) is an extremely rare genetic disease in children with clinical features of premature aging. The frequency of the disease is 1 in 8 million newborns (De Busk. 1972). To date, about 70 patients with this syndrome have been described in world literature. The etiology of progeria is unclear.

Extraskeletal Calcifications in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome
Children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a rare premature aging disease, exhibit extraskeletal calcifications detected by radiographic analysis and on physical examination. The aim of this study was to describe the natural history and pathophysiology of these abnormal calcifications in HGPS, and to determine whether medications and/or
