255supernumerary teeth, and delayed eruption of permanent teeth; the mother had a similar clinical history. The RUNX2 mutation analysis revealed a frameshift mutation caused by a cytosine deletion at nucleotide 1205 in exon 8 (c.1205delC) in both subjects. Conclusion: We found one case of a c.1205delC mutation in an extensive literature search, but the clinical condition of the patient was not described. Therefore, we were unable to compare the clinical presentations associated with this mutation. However, we believe this report provides a useful basis for genotypic and phenotypic analyses in cleidocranial dysplasia. http://dx.
occupying all the left mandibular body also extending to the inferior border. A bone biopsy revealed chronic osteomyelitis and a segment mandibulectomy was performed.Osteomyelitis is an inflammatory condition of bone in which the natural course of the disease is greatly influenced by the patient's overall condition. Team hypothesis was that long-term corticosteroid use could have predisposed to osteomyelitis and even worsened leprosy symptoms, as leprosy symptoms are also reported to increase due to a concomitant infection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
