2024-10-23

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome with an incidence of 1 in 1.7 million, caused by mutations in the CTSK gene, located on chromosome 1q21. We present a case of pycnodysostosis in a 30-year-old male patient who developed osteomyelitis of the jaw and an unusual fracture of the atlas, representing the first description of this complication. Patients with Pycnodysostosi...
