Gerodermia osteodysplastica hereditaria: report of three affected brothers and literature review.

Gerodermia osteodysplastica hereditaria was diagnosed in three Mexican brothers 6, 7, and 8 years old, respectively, who had the distinct facial appearance with sagging cheeks, premature wrinkling of the skin of face, abdomen, and dorsum of hands and feet; malocclusion, span greater than height; hyperextensibility; winging of the scapulae; stooped posture with kyphoscoliosis; protuberant abdomen; and pes planus. Radiologically they had generalized osteoplorosis, platyspondily due to multiple compression fractures, pseudoepiphyses of second metacarpals, and dislocated hips. Three other families with a total of 14 affected individuals have been reported. Inter- and intrafamilial variability can be recognized, particularly regarding the tendency to fractures, upper:lower segment ratio abnormalities, and results of skin biopsies, which have shown fragmentation of the elastic fibers in some cases (including the present family) and not in others. Although inheritance was considered to be X-linked recessive in the first reported family, an analysis of that pedigree together with those of the other reported families, including the present one, suggests that gerodermia osteodrysplastica is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Neonatal progeroid syndrome: more than one disease?

We report on an infant with the neonatal progeroid syndrome whose clinical course and autopsy findings indicate that this may be a heterogeneous phenotype. The infant had intrauterine growth retardation, absence of subcutaneous fat, and a wizened, aged face, all apparently characteristic of the condition, but also had congenital heart defects and urinary reflux not reported in previous cases. An elevated maternal serum alpha fetoprotein was noted at 16 weeks of gestation and late-onset growth retardation appeared after 31 weeks. Autopsy findings showed normal cerebral myelination, in contrast to findings of sudanophilic leukodystrophy in the one patient with the syndrome previously examined at autopsy. These findings suggest that the neonatal progeroid syndrome may be a phenotype and have more than one cause.

Previously unrecognized congenital progeroid disorder.

We report on a 5-year-old girl with a progeroid disorder and compare her to a previously reported woman now in her forties, whom she resembles to a striking degree. Common manifestations include pre- and post-natal growth retardation, markedly diminished subcutaneous fat, wrinkled skin, abnormally scant hair growth, hypoplastic distal phalanges with hypoplastic nails, umbilical hernia, large open anterior fontanelle, and normal cognitive and motor development. Both patients have had a prematurely aged appearance since birth. These 2 patients appear so different from previously reported patients with progeroid disorders that they may represent a separate entity.
