Search this site UW Radiology Main Online Teaching File: Case 35 Answers Cleidocranial dysplasia (a.k.a. cleidocranial dysostosis) The findings in this case include: a hypoplastic right clavicle (arrow in figure below) delayed ossification of the pubic bones (a midline abnormality) bilateral coxa vara with abnormal proximal femoral epiphyses The first two findings should give away the diagnosis in this case. If only the latter two findings had been present, one might also have included another rare dysplasia known as spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia. However, in this latter entity, the femoral ossification centers would have been delayed a bit more at this age. Cleidocranial dysplasia has also been known as cleidocranial dysostosis. However, cleidocranial dysplasia is a better term, as it emphasizes the systemic nature of this process. These patients have a normal life expectancy. Prominent complications of this syndrome include dental anomalies, hearing loss, scoliosis, and dislocations of the shoulder, radial head or hip.

Cleidocranial dysplasia is a rare skeletal dysplasia characterized by short stature, distinctive facial features and narrow, sloping shoulders caused by defective or absent collarbones (clavicles). Major symptoms may include premature closing of the soft spot on the head (coronal), delayed closure of the space between the bones of the skull (fontanels), narrow and abnormally shaped pelvic and pubic bones and deformations in the chest (thoracic region). Delayed eruption of teeth, moderately short stature, a high arched palate, a wide pelvic joint, failure of the lower jaw joints to unite, and fingers that are irregular in length may also be present.

Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a genetic (inherited) disorder of bone development which is characterized by: Absent or incompletely formed collar bones (the "cleido-" part refers to the clavicles, the collar bones). A person with this condition can bring his/her shoulders together or nearly so; and Typical cranial and facial abnormalities with square skull, late closure of the sutures of the skull, late closure of the fontanels (the soft spots), low nasal bridge, delayed eruption of the teeth, abnormal permanent teeth, etc. How does a person acquire CCD? The disorder is transmitted genetically in an autosomal dominant manner. This means that one parent with the condition has a 50:50 chance of passing CCD to each of their children. Boys and girls are equally affected. What is the molecular genetic basis for CCD?

OBJECTIVE: To report the effectiveness of dental panoramic radiography in identifying features pathognomonic for cleidocranial dysplasia. METHODS: Panoramic radiographs of nine male Caucasian patients with cleidocranial dysplasia are analysed. RESULTS: In addition to the established dental complications of failure of eruption of the permanent dentition and multiple supernumerary teeth, morphological abnormalities of the maxilla and mandible, particularly in the ascending ramus and coronoid process were
Extractions: TURNING MESENCHYME INTO BONE While the MyoD family of transcription factors is competent to transform primitive mesenchyme cells (or just about any other cell) into muscle-forming myoblasts, the CBFA-1 transcription factor appears to be able to transform cells into osteoblasts, the cells that make the bones. Four papers recently published in Cell converged on the equation that activation of the CBFA-1 gene is the sine qua non of bone development. One laboratory (Ducy et al., 1997) found CBFA-1 by searching for an activator of the bone-specific protein, osteocalcin. This laboratory had identified a portion of the mouse osteocalcin promoter that was critical in activating the osteocalcin gene in osteoblasts (Ducy and Karsenty, 1995), and they sought the gene that encoded the protein that bound to this region of the promoter. The factor in the osteoblast nuclei that bound to this region was characterized, and a cDNA encoding this protein was cloned. Ducy and her colleagues found that the message for this factor, CBFA-1 is severely restricted to the mesenchymal condensations that form bone and is limited to the osteoblast lineage. The protein appears to activate not only the osteocalcin gene but also other genes that are expressed in developing bone. Moreover, if the CBFA-1 gene is experimentally expressed in other types of cells, these cells begin to express the bone-specific proteins. Confirmation and extension of this conclusion was obtained from gene targeting experiments wherein the mouse
