Treatment with intermittent supplemental oxygen, nocturnal nasal volume ventilation, and posture modification was successful in partial resolution of chronic hypoventilation and excessive daytime somnolence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The complications of Frontometaphyseal Dysplasia may include: Immobility of joints Heat abnormalities Physical deformities Complications may occur with or without treatment, and in some cases, due to treatment also. [dovemed.com]
Prognosis
Prognosis depends on the progression of ankylosis and thoracic restriction (respiratory failure). Genitourinary tract obstructive anomalies and hydrocephaly are not unusual. Assessment of associated abnormalities, particularly the airway. [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]
Prognosis The prognosis for individuals affected by sclerosing bone dysplasia varies greatly depending upon the type of sclerosing bone dysplasia and severity of symptoms. [encyclopedia.com]
The nature of their genetic condition and any other health issues, how quickly the child is diagnosed, and possible treatment options, all factor into a child’s long-term prognosis. [chop.edu]
An adequate genetic evaluation usually facilitates decisions about therapeutic intervention and gives clues about the prognosis. 2. Genetic disorders with primary effect on growth 2.1. [intechopen.com]
Etiology
Other features that may indicate a different etiology in these patients are the increased frequency of cleft palate, Robin sequence, tracheal stenosis, and mild intellectual disability, which all occur in three of more patients in the present group. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology The exact pathogenesis of FMD is still unknown, however around half of cases of FMD are caused by gain of function mutations in the gene FLNA (Xq28) that encodes filamin A. [orpha.net]

Epidemiology
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.de]

Prevention
Currently, Frontometaphyseal Dysplasia may not be preventable, since it is a genetic disorder. [dovemed.com]
To have strong bones when you are young, and to prevent bone loss when you are older, you need to get enough calcium, vitamin D, and exercise. You should also avoid smoking and drinking too much alcohol. Bone diseases can make bones easy to break. [medlineplus.gov]
