To the best of our knowledge, no other similarly affected family has been presented in the literature.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Two children presented with asymmetrical genu valgum; 1 with knee pain, genu valgum, loose bodies, and early degenerative joint disease of both knees; and 2 with limp.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The presenting signs are often rheumatological ('joint pain') or neurological ('myopathy') in nature, and the cardinal feature of skeletal dysplasia (short stature) may not be present.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This case was a unique presentation within the family, suggesting a mutation in the affected child.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although surgery was initially recommended, conservative chiropractic management was employed and resulted in complete resolution of the patient's presenting hip symptoms.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The progression of the disease also affects muscles, with increasing atrophy, resulting in muscle fatigue and pain. Muscular atrophy has not been reported earlier in cases with COL9A2 mutations.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We ask about general symptoms (anxious mood, depressed mood, fatigue, pain, and stress) regardless of condition. Last updated: May 13, 2019[patientslikeme.com]
An 11-yr-old male patient suffered from occasional right hip pain and limited range of motion, as well as a nontender softtissuemass in the right knee.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients with MED and a waddlinggait but minimal radiographic hip involvement should be evaluated for a primary myopathy and a mutation in type IX collagen.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Clinical description EDM1 (see this term) is clinically the best characterized form of EMD and is marked by a waddlinggait and pain at onset, and moderate short stature. The main complication is early arthrosis of the hip.[orpha.net]
Joint pain, joint deformity, waddlinggait, and short stature are the main clinical signs and symptoms.[uniprot.org]
Physical exam is notable for a valgus left knee and a waddlinggait. Radiographs of the pelvis, knees, and left hand are provided in figures A-C. Genetic testing reveals a mutation of the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein(COMP).[orthobullets.com]
Waddlinggait Signs: Joint deformity (eg. valgus knee). Early OA. Joint contractures. Hyperextensible fingers Minor (investigative) findings On x-ray: Instability of upper C-spine. Bilateral epipyseal defects on pelvic film.[slideshare.net]
MED affects both sexes, and onset of symptoms usually begins early in or before the third decade of life [ 3 ], although in some forms patients experience joint pain, stiffness, gait abnormalities and retarded growth in early childhood [ 4 ].[doi.org]
[…] survey helps to differentiate between these two disease processes because LCP does not demonstrate the deformities about the knee and other joints typically seen with MED. 18 Acetabular changes associated with MED are typically found at the initial workup[journals.lww.com]
Larger improvements in Harris hip scores were identified after conservative treatment (P 0.003). Favorable midterm outcomes were obtained for the treatment of hip deformity in multiple epiphyseal dysplasia patients by conservative treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment of the hip deformity in multiple epiphyseal dysplasia is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons.We reviewed the clinical features and treatment options of hip joints affected by multiple epiphyseal dysplasia in 6 young patients (4 boys and 2 girls[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Management and treatment Current treatments involve mainly physiotherapy and orthopedic care. Hip replacement is frequently required, but the age at intervention is variable.[orpha.net]
We report on a 27-year-old male patient suffering from clinical symptoms of autosomal recessive MED with habitual dislocation of a multilayered patella on both sides, on the surgical treatment and on short-term clinical outcome.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
All patients experienced pain relief and improved quality of life after surgical treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Molecular diagnosis is important for accurate prognosis and genetic counselling.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Molecular diagnosis is important for genetic counselling and for an accurate prognosis. Even in case of a multilayered patella in MED, habitual patella dislocation could be managed successfully by medialisation of the tibial tuberosity.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These differences in clinical manifestation and prognosis justify molecular differentiation between the two genotypes.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract Seven patients (10 hips), five with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia and two with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, were studied as to the etiology of a significant change in their baseline symptoms.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology EDM1 is transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner and is caused by mutations in the gene ( COMP ; 19p13.1) encoding the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein.[orpha.net]

Understanding the precise effect that these molecular changes have on the integrity of the cartilage extracellular matrix will lead the way in identifying the complex disease pathophysiology that defines MED.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There is a mild version (‘ribbing’) and a more typical, severe, form (‘Fairbanks’) Pathophysiology Irregular, delayed, ossification of multiple epiphyses. A defect in COMP (cartilege, oligomeric matrix protein) causes the most common form.[slideshare.net]
Pathophysiology delay of epiphyseal endochondral ossification lack of osseous support yields secondary articular cartilage deformity most commonly affects proximal femur and proximal humerus Genetics autosomal dominant is most common mutation in COMP[orthobullets.com]
However, some causative genes resulting in maturational delay in the epiphysis of the bone have been previously reported.( 6 ) Conservative treatment methods are applied as the genetic mechanisms play a role in the pathophysiology.[archivesofrheumatology.org]
Pathophysiology Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) and matrilin-3 (MATN3) are thought to bridge extracellular matrix proteins. Collagen IX is important for the adhesive properties of cartilage.[emedicine.medscape.com]
