The disease can be present in infancy, and there is a considerable variability of expression. There are two major treatment regimens for this disease. [iofbonehealth.org]

• Pointed Teeth

  According to her family history, the patient has one normal brother, two paternal cousins with ocular hypertelorism and one paternal cousin with "pointed teeth". [blackstar.forp.usp.br]

• Low Set Ears

  Macrotia Delayed skeletal maturation Intellectual disability, mild Abnormal renal morphology Tinnitus Cranial nerve compression Low-set ears Cupped ear Sleep apnea Abnormality of the outer ear Laryngomalacia Abnormality of the kidney Microtia Apnea Abnormality [mendelian.co]

  On clinical examination, there was a presence of ocular hypertelorism, frontal bossing and a wide forehead, parietal protuberance, widening of the nasal ridge with an apparently small nose and in a saddle ( Figure 1A ), mandibular prognathism, low-set [blackstar.forp.usp.br]

• Genu Valgum

  Most patients present with mild genu valgum. The elbows are unable to extend fully. There may be widening of the lower femora and clavicles. Bones can sometimes be fragile, but fracturing is usually not common. [en.wikipedia.org]

  Affected people are clinically normal, apart from genu valgum, although scoliosis and bone fragility occasionally occur. The diagnosis of metaphyseal dysplasia is usually made when x-rays are done for an unrelated reason. X-ray changes are striking. [merckmanuals.com]

  Metaphyseal dysplasia, also known as Pyle's disease, is a rare recessive bone dysplasia characterised by genu valgum, metaphyseal anomalies with broadening of the long bones extending into the diaphyses, widening of the ribs and clavicles, platyspondyly [blueprintgenetics.com]

  The autosomal dominant form of craniometaphyseal dysplasia is characterized by good general health, normal stature and intelligence and the absence of systemic ramifications; the bones are not fragile and there is no lack of hematopoiesis (Reardon, 1991 [blackstar.forp.usp.br]

• Long Legs

  Long leg bones are moderately bowed. Progressive contractures in the digits may simulate arthritis. Height and general health are normal. [merckmanuals.com]

Radiographic examinations showed increased radiopacities of the maxilla and mandibular bones due to hyperostosis and sclerosis, and needed a detailed workup of bone dysplasias which made it a rare presentation for documentation. [jiaomr.in]

The other potential treatment is a low calcium diet and calcitriol. [e-aps.org]

Treatment of metaphyseal dysplasia is often not necessary but may involve orthodontic treatments for dental malformations or orthopedic surgery for clinically significant skeletal deformities. [merckmanuals.com]

The prognosis is dependent upon the severity of the symptoms. [dovemed.com]

An accurate and early diagnosis and knowledge of the natural history of CMD is important for establishing preventative treatment regimens and proper management of complications as well as estimating the prognosis. [e-aps.org]

Prognosis In many cases, patients with metaphyseal dysplasia may be symptomless and very healthy. [encyclopedia.com]

Considering the normal intelligence and life expectancy, the prognosis was good, but the patient was counselled regarding cosmetic and functional surgical correction for which he was reluctant because of his educational commitments. [jiaomr.in]
