Enamel hypoplasia associated with congenital hypoparathyroidism.

Enamel hypoplasia secondary to candidiasis endocrinopathy syndrome: case report.

The clinical features of a 7-year-old girl with enamel hypoplasia secondary to autoimmune hypoparathyroidism and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis are detailed. The combination of features are typical of a rare, probably genetically determined immunodeficiency termed candidiasis endocrinopathy syndrome (CES). Affected individuals have chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis and a spectrum of autoimmu...

Asymmetric crying facies associated with congenital hypoparathyroidism and 22q11 deletion.

Asymmetric crying facies is caused by congenital hypoplasia or agenesis of the depressor anguli oris muscle.

CATCH 22 is a medical acronym ...

Enamel defects in prematurely born, low birth-weight infants.

The purpose of this study was to relate the influence of birth and metabolic parameters of the low birth-weight neonate to the development of the primary teeth. The role of hypocalcemia as a specific determinant of enamel hypoplasia was examined. A total of 106 low birth-weight children ranging in age from 18 months to 8 years were examined to determine the frequency of enamel defects. Enamel h...
