Albright’s Hereditary Osteodystrophy: A Constellation of Clinical Features
نویسنده
چکیده
Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by end-organ resistance to the action of PTH (Parathyroid Hormone). There are four types of PHPs namely Ia, Ib, Ic and II. PHP Ia is associated with a constellation of clinical features referred to as Albright’s Hereditary Osteodystrophy (AHO). The oral manifestation of AHO found in the literature includes aplasia and or enamel hypoplasia, late tooth eruption, and enlarged radicular channels susceptible to caries. Here, we are reporting a rare case of a 14-year-old girl with Albright’s hereditary osteodystrophy with distinctive oral manifestations.

Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP; MIM 103580) refers to end-organ resistance that primarily impairs the renal actions of PTH (1). In addition, patients with PHP-Ia show resistance to other hormones, as well as Albright’s hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO), a constellation of features including short stature, obesity, brachydactyly, ectopic ossifi cations and/or mental retardation. These patients have...

Pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ia (PHP-Ia), one of 4 types of PHP, is a genetic disease characterized by clinical hypoparathyroidism caused by parathyroid hormone (PTH) resistance. In addition, patients with PHP-Ia show resistance to other hormones as well as Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO), a constellation of features including short stature, obesity, brachydactyly, ectopic ossificat...
متن کاملPseudohypoparathyroidism in Children
Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a genetic syndrome characterized by a distinctive set of developmental and skeletal defects that may easily be misdiagnosed as exogenous obesity in children. There are very few publications detailing the comprehensive management of children and adolescents with this disorder. This chapter provides a comprehensive discussion of the various aspects of t...
متن کاملGenetic basis for resistance to parathyroid hormone.
Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is associated with biochemical hypoparathyroidism (i.e. hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia) due to parathyroid hormone (PTH) resistance rather than to PTH deficiency. Patients with PHP type 1a have a generalized form of hormone resistance plus a constellation of developmental defects termed Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO). Within PHP type 1a families some...
