Acrodysostosis coinciding with pseudohypoparathyroidism and pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism. 1977

R C Ablow, and Y E Hsia, and I K Brandt

The diagnosis of acrodysostosis has been differentiated from that of pseudohypoparathyroidism or pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism by the absence of endocrine abnormalities, more generalized osseous abnormalities, and a characteristic facial appearance. Two cases are presented which fulfill all of the major features of acrodysostosis: peripheral dysostosis, nasal hypoplasia (pug nose), and mental retardation. The first case had all the metabolic abnormalities of pseudohypoparathyroidism; the second case had urinary cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate findings suggestive of pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism. Therefore acrodysostosis cannot be differentiated from pseudohypoparathyroidism or pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism on clinical and radiologic features only.

D011547 Pseudohypoparathyroidism A hereditary syndrome clinically similar to HYPOPARATHYROIDISM. It is characterized by HYPOCALCEMIA; HYPERPHOSPHATEMIA; and associated skeletal development impairment and caused by failure of response to PARATHYROID HORMONE rather than deficiencies. A severe form with resistance to multiple hormones is referred to as Type 1a and is associated with maternal mutant allele of the ALPHA CHAIN OF STIMULATORY G PROTEIN.

D011556 Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism A form of PSEUDOHYPOPARATHYROIDISM characterized by the same features except for the abnormal response to hormones such as PARATHYROID HORMONE. It is associated with paternally inherited mutant alleles of the ALPHA CHAIN OF STIMULATORY G PROTEIN.
