Hereditary onycho-osteodysplasia (HOOD) is an autosomal dominant condition, characterized by dysplasia of the nails and joints and extra bone formation at the os ilium. Nephropathy occurs in some families with HOOD. We discuss a patient's history and the results of the study of her family. The incidence of all important features of this syndrome is given. Finally, some methods of treatment and genetic counseling are discussed.

Introduction: Persistent right umbilical vein (PRUV) is an embryonic vascular abnormality. Recent studies suggested that the perinatal outcome was good and the risk of aneuploidy was low in isolated forms. Our purpose in this study was to assess the relation of PRUV with genetic abnormalities and demonstrate concomitant malformations and perinatal outcomes of these fetuses.

Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare genetic disease characterized by dysplastic nails, patella abnormalities, skeletal malformation, and chronic pain. Although chronic pain in NPS is mainly due to bone and musculoskeletal symptoms, it can also result from neurological dysfunction. Conventional analgesics are often insufficient to relieve NPS-associated chronic pain.

Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare autosomal dominant pleiotropic disorder characterized by dysplasia of the nails, patellar aplasia or hypoplasia, iliac horns and dysplasia of the elbows. We present a case of a 56-year-old female presenting with bilateral knee pain, where initial radiographic findings of hypoplastic patellae prompted further investigation, revealing characteristic skeletal anomalies consistent with NPS. This case underscores the importance of recognizing radiological clues and conducting thorough clinical evaluation to diagnose rare genetic conditions such as NPS.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study discusses a surgical method involving extensive quadriceps realignment and optional techniques to effectively treat these dislocations, following principles established in 1976 to minimize tissue damage.
  • * Over 24 patients treated with this method from 2002 to 2021 showed successful outcomes, with improvements in stability and functionality, allowing many to participate in sports, and resulting in a favorable average pedi-IKDC score post-surgery.
