Dysostosis multiplex is a rare disease of congenital origin characterized by chondrodystrophic skeletal changes and deposition of a lipid-like substance in many of the body tissues. The typical picture is that of dwarfism with deformity of the limbs and enlargement of the liver and spleen. The head is large, the orbits widely spread and the Acrofacial Dysostosis. Deborah Krakow, in Obstetric Imaging: Fetal Diagnosis and Care (Second Edition), 2018. Synopsis of Treatment Options Prenatal. The prenatal management of MFDs and AFDs is best done at a center with expertise in managing an airway, and consideration for the ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedure may be applicable in some circumstances. Pathology. It is a rare polyostotic skeletal dysplasia caused by a mutation in the CBFA1 gene in AD inherited or sporadic mutation pattern (in approximately 40%) which is characterized by incomplete intramembranous ossification of midline skeletal structures inclusive of the clavicle as well as a defective development of the pubic bones Craniofacial dysostosis (CFD) is the term applied to syndromal forms of craniosynostosis. These disorders are characterized by sutural involvement that not only includes the cranial vault but also extends into the skull base and midfacial skeletal structures. Cleidocranial dysostosis is a condition inherited in an autosomal dominant manner in which 1/3 of the patients show spontaneous mutation and 2/3 show familial variation . The responsible gene RUNX2 (Runt-related transcription factor 2) is a cloned gene located on the short arm of Chromosome 6 (6p21) [ 5 - 7 ]. This is a PDF-only article.
