6.4 Spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia – a physiotherapy approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Materials and methods A retrospective review was completed on 6 cases of SED. All physiotherapy assessments of joint range of movement, muscle strength, balance and gait were included. The physiotherapy programme included stretches to restricted joints and a progressive resisted strengthening programme (high repetitions and low resistance weights) completed into the full range of movement of most joints. Gait re-education and balance training were also included.

X-linked spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda in the Danish-Swedish farm hound.
In two litters from the same parents, three out of four males had an abnormally short leg and body length. Affected dogs showed signs of pain when moving, which could be eliminated by analgesia. On radiography, these animals had widened, radiolucent, irregularly bordered intervertebral disc spaces. When examined at seven months of age, the epiphyses appeared widened and irregular in shape and o...
متن کاملOto- spondylo-megaepiphyseal dysplasia (OSMED): clinical description of three patients homozygous for a missense mutation in the COL11A2 gene.
We describe a syndrome of midface hypoplasia, non-progressive sensorineural deafness and epiphyseal dysplasia in 3 sibs born to consanguineous parents. Clinical and roentgenographic findings are compatible with a diagnosis of oto-spondylo-megaepiphyseal dysplasia (OSMED). Histologic study of cartilage shows severe osteoarthritis, which may necessitate joint replacements in early adulthood. Ultr...
متن کاملLoss of kinase activity in a patient with Wolcott-Rallison syndrome caused by a novel mutation in the EIF2AK3 gene.
Wolcott-Rallison syndrome (WRS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by neonatal or early infancy type 1 diabetes, epiphyseal dysplasia, and growth retardation. Mutations in the EIF2AK3 gene, encoding the eukaryotic initiation factor 2alpha-kinase 3 (EIF2AK3), have been found in WRS patients. Here we describe a girl who came to our attention at 2 months of age with severe hypertonic...
متن کاملA Novel Mutation in RPL10 (Ribosomal Protein L10) Causes X-Linked Intellectual Disability, Cerebellar Hypoplasia, and Spondylo-Epiphyseal Dysplasia.
RPL10 encodes ribosomal protein L10 (uL16), a highly conserved multifunctional component of the large ribosomal subunit, involved in ribosome biogenesis and function. Using X-exome resequencing, we identified a novel missense mutation (c.191C>T; p.(A64V)) in the N-terminal domain of the protein, in a family with two affected cousins presenting with X-linked intellectual disability, cerebellar h...
متن کاملSpondylo-mesomelic-acrodysplasia with joint dislocations and severe combined immunodeficiency: a newly recognised immuno-osseous dysplasia.
A newborn girl is described with an association of spondylo-acrodysplasia, mild short limbed dwarfism without significant metaphyseal changes, joint dislocations, and severe immune system dysfunction. This association is distinct from other known immuno-osseous dysplasias, including Schimke dysplasia, ADA deficiency with osseous changes, and Omenn phenotype with short limbed dwarfism.
