RESUMO

Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive disease with osteoarticular manifestations of great relevance in anesthetic practice. People with this disease are more prone to fractures and craniofacial anomalies that anticipate a difficult-to-manage airway. We present the case of a 19-year-old woman with pycnodysostosis who underwent a reductive mammoplasty under general anesthesia. (AU)

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome that provides the abnormal bone metabolism that increases the susceptibility of patients to develop osteomyelitis. OBJECTIVE: This systematic review was conducted to analyze the risk factors associated with the development of complications in the jaws (fractures and osteomyelitis), as well as their clinical-pathological characteristics and therapeutic approaches in patients with pycnodysostosis. METHODS: Searches were performed in the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Lilacs, and Cochrane databases. Case reports or case series that met the eligibility criteria according to the PRISMA statement were included. The full texts of 31 articles were retrieved. Twenty of these articles published between 1969 and 2018 were selected, which described 26 cases of osteomyelitis in patients with pycnodysostosis. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 37.84 years; the male-to-female was 1.36:1. The mandible was the most affected site (76.9%). Tooth extraction was the main risk factor for osteomyelitis (61.5%), followed by infection (26.8%) and mandibular fracture (23.0%). Antibiotic therapy alone or combined with some surgical procedure was the treatment used in most cases (80.7%). CONCLUSION: The findings of this review showed that patients with pycnodysostosis are more likely to develop osteomyelitis of the jaws after surgical procedures, especially tooth extraction which remains the main risk factor for its establishment. In addition, prophylactic antibiotic-therapy in the pre- and postoperative periods may prevent the development of osteomyelitis in pycnodysostosis.

RESUMO

Resumen: Introducción: La picnodisostosis es una rara enfermedad secundaria en una mutación en el gen 1q21 que codifica la catepsina K, enzima implicada en el metabolismo de osteonectina, osteopontina y colágeno I. La incidencia mundial es de 1-1.7 casos por millón, sin prevalencia por género, se caracteriza clínicamente por talla baja, deformidades craneales, «cara de pájaro¼ y fragilidad ósea con tendencia a fracturas patológicas, que afectan predominantemente los huesos largos y ocasionalmente en los pedículos vertebrales. Radiológicamente es característica la presencia de osteoesclerosis con canales medulares permeables. Aunque existen numerosos reportes de casos clínicos en la literatura, pocos son los que describen familias con más de un individuo afectado y el seguimiento suele ser a corto plazo. Objetivo: Analizar la evolución clínica de los pacientes afectados. Material y métodos: Se realizó estudio retrospectivo, descriptivo, observacional de tres pacientes con diagnóstico de picnodisostosis, en el período de Julio 2006 a Marzo de 2016. Resultados: Se observaron diferentes formas de afectación de la picnodisostosis, algunas de ellas atípicas como la espondilólisis y una fractura de escápula en una paciente. Conclusiones: El presente estudio podría ser el análisis longitudinal más extenso del que se tenga registro. Conocer la variedad de manifestaciones y complicaciones presentadas permitirá al lector seleccionar el mejor método de tratamiento para cada caso.

Abstract: Introduction: Pycnodysostosis is a rare disease secondary to a mutation in gen 1q21 that codifies the cathepsin K, proteolitic enzyme implicated in the metabolism of osteonectin, osteopontin and type I colagen. Its global incidence is around 1-1.7 cases per million, without genre prevalences, it is clinically caracterized by short stature, craneal deformities, «bird's face¼ and bone fragility with pathological fractures tendency predominantly affecting long bones and occasionally vertebral pedicles. Radiologically is characterized by sclerous bones with permeable medular cannel. Despite there are numerous clinical reports on medical literature, just a litlle describe families with more than one afected member and its followship is usually short-term. Objective: To analize clinical evolution of these afected patients. Material and methods: A retrospective, descriptive, observational study was reelized in three patients with diagnosis of pycnodisostosis, between July 2006 and March 2016. Results: different affection forms of pycnodisostosis where observed, some of them, atipical, as for example spondilolisis and a escapule fracture in one patien. Conclusions: The present study could be the longest longitudinal report ever registered. By knowing the presented variety of manifestations and complications, the reader could select the best treatment method for each case.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The aims of the present study were to discuss the demographic distribution and clinical characteristics of patients with pycnodysostosis (PYCD) and the onset of osteomyelitis and its treatment using a literature review. The authors also report on an update of treatment of mandibular osteomyelitis in a patient with PYCD using a buccal fat pad (BFP) as a free graft. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study was carried out in 2 steps. In the first step, an electronic search was undertaken in PubMed in March 2018, with 17 articles being included. In the second step, the authors present a case of mandibular osteomyelitis in a 30-year-old woman with PYCD treated by sequestrectomy and a BFP as a free graft (follow-up, 24 months). RESULTS: Twenty-one cases of osteomyelitis of the jaws in patients with PYCD were included. Dental extraction, mandibular fracture, and 1 case of facial trauma represented the causes of mandibular osteomyelitis. Treatments included resection associated with antibiotics and sequestrectomy alone or associated with antibiotics. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the good results of the present case, further studies using the BFP as an adjuvant for jaw osteomyelitis are necessary to elucidate its clinical efficiency and safety.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pycnodysostosis is an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia, the prevalence of which is estimated to be low (1 per million). Nevertheless, in recent years we have found 27 affected individuals from 22 families in Ceará State, a region of the Brazilian Northeast, giving a local prevalence of 3 per million. This local prevalence associated with a high parental consanguinity, suggesting a possible founder effect, prompted us to perform a molecular investigation of these families to test this hypothesis. METHODS: The CTSK gene was sequenced by the Sanger method in the patients and their parents. In addition to 18 families from Ceará, this study also included 15 families from other Brazilian regions. We also investigated the origin of each family from the birthplace of the parents and/or grandparents. RESULTS: We have studied 39 patients, including 33 probands and 6 sibs, from 33 families with pycnodysostosis and identified six mutations, five previously described (c.436G>C, c.580G>A, c.721C>T, c.830C>T and c.953G>A) and one novel frameshift (c.83dupT). This frameshift variant seems to have a single origin in Ceará State, since the haplotype study using the polymorphic markers D1S2344, D1S442, D1S498 and D1S2715 suggested a common origin. Most of the mutations were found in homozygosity in the patients from Ceará (83.3 %) while in other states the mutations were found in homozygosity in half of patients. We have also shown that most of the families currently living outside of Ceará have northeastern ancestors, suggesting a dispersion of these mutations from the Brazilian Northeast. CONCLUSIONS: The high frequency of pycnodysostosis in Ceará State is the consequence of the high inbreeding in that region. Several mutations, probably introduced a long time ago in Ceará, must have spread due to consanguineous marriages and internal population migration. However, the novel mutation seems to have a single origin in Ceará, suggestive of a founder effect.

RESUMO

Las fracturas en edad pediátrica son una entidad importante para considerar. Hay enfermedades en que los huesos del niño se fracturan ante traumatismos de menor energía. La picnodisostosis es un tipo inusual de displasia cráneo-metafisaria autosómica recesiva, cuya primera manifestación clínica suele ser una fractura en hueso patológico. Se presenta a una paciente, caucásica, de 9 años de edad, con diagnóstico de picnodisostosis, que ingresó al hospital por fractura del fémur derecho, por un mecanismo de baja energía. Los estudios radiográficos mostraron fracturas del fémur bilateral, fractura proximal de la tibia izquierda y consolidación viciosa en antecurvatum. Esta rara enfermedad se diagnostica a edades tempranas por talla baja, por fracturas repetidas o por traumas de baja energía. Las opciones terapéuticas son limitadas, y no se ha desarrollado una cura definitiva. Es importante, ante un paciente pediátrico con rasgos dismórficos faciales y fracturas en hueso patológico, sospechar displasias óseas, tales como la picnodisostosis y sus diagnósticos diferenciales.

Fractures are an important entity to consider in pediatric patients. There are certain diseases in which bones fracture with a minimal trauma. Pycnodysostosis is an autosomal recessive unusual type of cráneo metaphyseal dysplasia, that presents frequently as fracture in a pathological bone. A 9 year old caucasian female, diagnosed with pycnodysostosis, was admitted with a right femur fracture as a result of a low energy trauma. Radiographic studies showed bilateral femur fractures, proximal fracture and non-union in antecurvatum of the left tibia. Pycnodysostosis is a rare disease, generally diagnosed at an early age by growth restriction, frequent fractures or fractures with low energy trauma. Therapy alternatives are limited, and no permanent cure has been developed. If a patient has dysmorphic facial features and fractures in a pathological bone, it is important to suspect bone dysplasia, such as pycnodysostosis and its differential diagnoses.
