We report a case of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita (SED congenita), diagnosed at autopsy of a term infant. Prenatal ultrasound at 20 weeks of gestation had shown shortening of all the fetal long bones, with bowing of the femora and humeri, clubfeet, and small thoracic cage. We discuss the diagnostic features of SED and the main differential diagnoses.

Background: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is the most common benign tumor of the ribs, with surgical resection being the preferred treatment modality for rib FD, leading to enhanced quality of life and favorable outcomes. The complexity of surgical intervention varies depending on the location of costal FD, presenting challenges for both open surgical and thoracoscopic approaches. In this study, we present a novel technique for three-port robotic-assisted costectomy utilizing a Gigli saw, detailing our initial findings and outcomes.

BACKGROUND Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare (1: 1 000 000) autosomal dominant congenital skeletal dysplasia characterized by widely patent calvarial sutures, clavicular hypoplasia, supernumerary teeth, and short stature. Only a minority of the cases are diagnosed early after birth. We present another case of proven CCD presenting with typical neonatal phenotype to promote awareness of this rare disorder.

Fibrous dysplasia is an uncommon bone disorder affecting various parts of the skeleton, often affecting facial and cranial bones. In this case, a 10-year-old patient was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia of the ethmoid sinus at an early age. The patient has experienced nasal congestion, snores, and worsening nasal patency since 2019.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign tumor condition in which normal bone is replaced by structurally deficient fibrous lamellar bone. It represents approximately 5-7% of benign bone tumors and occurs in two presentations: monostotic, which is the most common, and polyostotic. The proximal femur is one of the most common locations for benign tumors, including FD.

Unlabelled: Spondyloenchondrodysplasia (SPENCD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized with skeletal dysplasia, immune dysregulation, and neurological impairment. Patients diagnosed with SPENCD at a single pediatric hematology center were included in the study. The patients' clinical characteristics, symptoms at presentation, imaging and laboratory results, and genetic analysis results were collected retrospectively from their files.
