Morphological Features of Pycnodysostosis with Emphasis on Clinical and Radiographic Maxillofacial Findings
Pycnodysostosis is a rare genetic syndrome characterized by short stature, obtuse mandibular angle, frontal, parietal and occipital bossing, open fontanels and cranial sutures, midfacial hypoplasia, acro-osteolysis of the distal phalanges, increased bone density, absence or hipopneumatization of the...
