Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Hereditary Arthro-ophthalmopathy (The Stickler Syndrome) is a relatively common dominantly inherited disorder of connective tissue. A wide range of musculoskeletal involvement occurs including marfanoid habitus, kyphosis, scoliosis, slipped epiphyses, joint laxity and degenerative arthritis. Congenital myopia and micrognathia are the most characteristic non-skeletal features. An affected family is reported who also exhibit protrusio acetabuli. It is important to recognize this syndrome for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. |
