  • Title: [Cranial metaphysial dysplasia (Jackson) (author's transl)].
    Author: Wemmer U, Böttger E.
    Journal: Rofo; 1978 Jan; 128(1):66-9. PubMed ID: 146664.
    Abstract:
    The typical development of the radiological and clinical features of cranial metaphyseal dysplasia were observed over a period of nine years in one patient. This condition is most commonly confused with metaphyseal dysplasia (Pyle), but differs from the latter in showing pronounced changes in the skull leading to blindness, deafness and facial paralysis as well as club-shaped metaphyses. Cranial metaphyseal dysplasia, particularly in its autosomal recessive form, leads to reduced intelligence and life expectancy of the patients. The diagnosis can usually be made in early childhood.
