Surgical treatment of van Buchem's disease

Van Buchem Disease (Hyperostosis Corticalis Generalisata) Maps to Chromosome 17q12-q21

“…Cook et al 1989;Bettini et al 1991) also have been reported. In addition, as already suggested by Eastman and Bixler (1977), several case reports have been published concerning subjects who probably did not have van Buchem disease (Dyson 1972;Owen 1976;Ruckert et al 1985;Schendel 1988;Rodriguez et al 1995); rather, these subjects probably had the more benign, autosomal dominant endosteal hyperostosis, first described by Worth and Wollin (1966).…”

Localization of the Gene for Sclerosteosis to the van Buchem Disease–Gene Region on Chromosome 17q12–q21

“…The prevalence of van Buchem disease worldwide is also low, with 15 patients of Dutch origin (Van Buchem et al 1976;Van Hul et al 1998), one family with four affected siblings (Dixon et al 1982), and a few isolated cases (Lopez et al 1985;Miguez et al 1986;Fryns and Van der Berghe 1988;Cook et al 1989;Bettini et al 1991). In the literature, a diagnosis of van Buchem disease has been made in pedigrees with a mild or asymptomatic autosomal dominant hyperostosis (Maroteaux et al 1971;Dyson 1972;Lapresle et al 1976;Owen 1976;Vayssairat et al 1976;Gelman 1977;Gorlin and Glass 1977;Ruckert et al 1985;Perez-Vicente et al 1987;Schendel 1988;Rodriguez et al 1995), a condition first described by Worth and Wollin (1966).…”
