Osteodysplastia (Melnick-Needles syndrome). Radiological quiz. 1977

E Moadel, and D Bryk

Postmortem examination of a child with osteodysplastia (Melnick-Needles syndrome) showed peculiar fibro-osseous tissue in the marrow cavity, with areas of bone constriction but no abnormality of endochondral ossification. Pectus excavatum and scalloping of the vertebral bodies were also present.

D008342	Mandibulofacial Dysostosis	A hereditary disorder occurring in two forms: the complete form (Franceschetti's syndrome) is characterized by a slant of the palpebral fissures, COLOBOMA of the lower lid, MICROGNATHIA and hypoplasia of the ZYGOMATIC ARCHES, and CONGENITAL MICROTIA. It is transmitted as an autosomal trait. The incomplete form (Treacher Collins syndrome) is characterized by the same anomalies in less pronounced degree. It occurs sporadically, but an autosomal dominant mode of transmission is suspected.
