Desmosterolosis: an illustration of diagnostic ambiguity of cholesterol synthesis disorders [PDF]
Desmosterolosis is an autosomal recessive disorder of cholesterol biosynthesis caused by biallelic mutations of DHCR24 (homozygous or compound heterozygous), which encodes 3-β-hydroxysterol Δ-24-reductase. We report two sisters homozygous for the 571G>

Trisomy 5p: Long Recognized, Rarely Published‐ Three New Cases and Review of the Literature
ABSTRACT Complete trisomy 5p is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5. Current data suggest that complete trisomy 5p presents as a distinct clinical syndrome including but not limited to seizures, developmental delays, facial dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and recurrent respiratory infections.

Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome: A Rare Case Report with Dental Perspective
Freeman-Sheldon syndrome is a rare form of multiple congenital contracture syndromes (arthrogryposes) and is the most severe form of distal arthrogryposis. The main skeletal malformations include camptodactyly with ulnar deviation and talipes equinovarus

Novel Nonsense Mutation in SMARCD2 Gene Results in Dysplasia of All Myeloid Cell Lines
ABSTRACT Introduction Specific granule deficiency type II (SGD2) is a rare heterogeneous congenital disease characterized by early‐onset life‐threatening infections. SGD2 is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the SMARCD2 gene. Methods Prenatal screening in our patient revealed a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in SMARCD2 (c.208C>T, p.Gln70*).

Congenital Talipes Equinovarus
Objectives: To determine the functional outcome of one stage posteromedial release in congenital clubfoot in terms offunctional and radiological assessment. Methodology: Forty five patients having clubfoot deformity were included in the study. Fifteen patientshad bilateral deformities. The outcome was evaluated by functionally assessing the foot in the
