Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates dental issues in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), focusing on abscess occurrence and the characteristics of pulp chambers.
- - Researchers analyzed 24 XLH patients and 23 healthy controls, using imaging and histological techniques to compare pulp chamber features and dental health.
- - Results showed that most XLH patients have enlarged and altered pulp chambers, increasing their risk for abscesses, highlighting the need for early, multidisciplinary dental care for these patients.
Introduction: Rickets, growth failure, and recurrent periapical abscesses with fistulae are main signs in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH). Prevalence of abscesses, pulp chamber features, biochemical findings, disease severity, and PHEX gene mutation were examined.
Materials And Methods: Pulp chambers size, shape, and morphology were assessed by orthopantomography in XLH patients (n = 24, age 5.
Although spontaneous remission occurs in patients with idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis (IJO), permanent bone deformities may occur. The effects of long-term pamidronate treatment on clinical findings, bone mineral status, and fracture rate were evaluated. Nine patients (age 9.
