Teriparatide in Two Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVB

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IV is a multisystem lysosomal storage disease characterized by severe skeletal dysplasia resulting from impaired degradation of the glycosaminoglycans keratan sulfate and chondroitin‐6‐sulfate. The condition is classified into Types A and B based on the underlying enzyme deficiency.

Management of odontoid fractures in the elderly [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Spine Journal, 1999
Odontoid fractures are frequent in patients over 70 years of age, and in patients over 80 years of age they form the majority of spinal fractures. In a retrospective analysis of 23 geriatric (> 70 years) patients with a fracture of the odontoid, we compared some of the clinical features to a contemporary series of patients younger than 70 years of age.
