Early dental intervention in patients with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Introduction Familiar or syndrome-associated hypo-, oligo or anodontia in children and adolescents demands for professional dental intervention, because poor dental function and aesthetics often result in psychosocial deprivation. Treatment challenges in these patients are to develop functionally and aesthetically acceptable intermediate solutions that strive for tooth and bone preservation and...
متن کاملPossible genetic heterogeneity in X linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia has been mapped to Xq11-q13 by linkage studies and by a translocation in a manifesting female. We report a family with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in which the disease did not segregate with this region of the X chromosome as expected. Ten DNA probes which are localised between Xp11 and Xq22 were used in the investigation. The difficulties in diagnosing t...
متن کاملLung and eye involvement in X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Objective X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED; ectodysplasin deficiency) has been classically described as affecting hair, sweat glands and dentition. What may be underappreciated is the effect ectodysplasin deficiency has on glands surrounding the airways and eyes and the resulting chronic health issues. In this study, we evaluated respiratory and ocular symptoms in XLHED patients.
متن کاملClinical aspects of X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
Boys with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and their families were studied. Many suffered severe illness in early childhood and nearly 30% died; many had feeding problems, severe fever, atopic disease, and recurrent respiratory infections. Some infants failed to thrive. We found no consistent common endocrine or immunological abnormality, although, most had abnormal immunoglobulin pro...
متن کاملA dental approach to carrier screening in X linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
The frequency of carriers of X linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia among females with hypodontia of the permanent dentition (excluding third molars) could be as high as 1 in 500, and among females with deciduous hypodontia could be as high as 1 in 50. Since it may be possible to identify carriers form among female hypodontia cases in general by virtue of a reduced sweat pore count, the pot...
