SUMMARYOver a 10‐year period, 28 Arab children with autosomal recessive osteopetrosis were seen in two hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Eighteen (64%) had osteopetrosis associated with metabolic acidosis probably due to a renal tubular defect; nine (32%) had a malignant infantile form of osteopetrosis and one had a mild form with delayed onset ...

Carbonic Anhydrase II Deficiency: A Rare Case of Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The term osteopetrosis describes a group of rare hereditary diseases of the skeleton, characterized by an increase in bone density, caused by a defect in the development or function of osteoclasts.

This multicenter retrospective study evaluated implant survival and peri‐implant health in adults with non‐syndromic intellectual disability. Among 453 implants with long‐term follow‐up, survival exceeded 92%, with tissue‐level implants and cement‐retained restorations associated with healthier peri‐implant conditions. These findings support the use of

ABSTRACT Background Immunocompromised children with hematologic malignancies or undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are at high risk for invasive fungal diseases (IFDs). Reported incidence varies considerably due to heterogeneous diagnostic criteria, antifungal strategies and environmental conditions.

A Case Report of Malignant Infantile Osteopetrosis
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Infantile osteopetrosis is a rare genetic fetal and metabolic congenital osteo- disorder. It results from dysfunction or lack of osteoclasts. Most of patients die from anemia, bleeding and infection.
