Bone Disorder
The book details the pathologic and radiologic characteristics of all bone and joint diseases, including arthritis, metastatic bone disease, osteoporosis, trauma, osteomyelitis, developmental bone disorders, and tumor-like lesions. [books.google.com]
In the second decade of life, a progressive bone disorder occurred, initially in the form of acro-osteolysis within the distal phalanges of the hands and feet. [qjmed.oxfordjournals.org]
Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive sclerosing bone disorder which is characterized by short stature and generalized diffuse osteosclerosis with fragile bones. [contempclindent.org]

Disorder of Digit
A Raynaud phenomenon-like disorder, with digital pain, numbness, and itching, is usually a premonitory sign indi cating that alterations in bone will probably ensue. Changes in the fingers and nails are usually apparent. [rrnursingschool.biz]
Treatment
Neutrophilic chemotaxis, evaluated before starting the treatment and after 15 and 30 days of therapy, showed a progressive decrease of the initial very high index. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These treatments include drugs that act to strengthen the bones and prevent the loss of bone mass. [diseaseinfosearch.org]
Management and treatment No treatment exists for AOD, but early osteoporosis might be treated by bisphosphonates, alone or in combination with teriparatide. Prognosis Patients have a normal life expectancy. [orpha.net]
In case of severe symptoms, the outlook may be guarded Please find comprehensive information on Gorham-Stout Disease regarding definition, distribution, risk factors, causes, signs & symptoms, diagnosis, complications, treatment, prevention, prognosis [dovemed.com]
Prognosis

Prognosis Patients have a normal life expectancy. However, osteoporosis and respiratory dysfunction are factors for severe morbidity. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Chronic osseous involvement is usually associated with diseases of other organs and has a poor prognosis Sarcoid of feet. [learningradiology.com]
Prognosis [ edit ] Depends on the type and degree of systemic sclerosis. There is no cure for scleroderma and most people die from involvement of the heart, lungs and/or kidney. [en.wikibooks.org]
Etiology
Idiopathic non-familial variant is of unknown etiology and usually affects fingers and is progressive. Hereditary causes of acroosteolysis follow an autosomal dominant or recessive pattern of inheritance and distal phalanges are primarily affected. [bone-abstracts.org]
Etiology AOD is caused by truncating mutations in the NOTCH2 gene (1p13-p11). All mutations lie within the last coding exon of NOTCH2 resulting in a gain of function due to the loss of the protein-destabilizing PEST domain. [orpha.net]

Depending on the etiology, the serum calcium may be elevated and phosphate may be decreased. [uwmsk.org]
Epidemiology
Epidemiologic, pathogenetic and radiological aspects of occupational acroosteolysis are briefly reviewed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Chapters on epidemiology, embryology, non-syndromic hearing loss, and syndromic forms of hearing loss have all been updated with particular attention to the vast amount of new information on molecular mechanisms, and chapters on clinical and molecular [books.google.com]
Summary Epidemiology Prevalence is unknown; over 80 cases have been described to date. Clinical description AOD has a variable, broad and evolving clinical spectrum. [orpha.net]

Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of the disease is unknown, but obstructive lesions of small peripheral arteries are thought to cause osteolysis of the distal phalanges of the fingers. Copyright 1978 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Incorporated [journals.lww.com]

When the condition is discovered, amputation may need to be performed in order to prevent the spread of tissue necrosis and painful ulceration on the affected digits. [wisegeek.com]
In some cases, your doctor may prescribe medicines to prevent osteoporosis. [icdlist.com]
To prevent oral complications, maintenance of proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits is very important. Tooth extraction and other surgeries should be done carefully to prevent postextraction osteomyelitis. [contempclindent.org]
