Background: Achondroplasia is the most common cause of genetic dwarfism with a prevalence of 1/10 000 to 30 000 birth. It is a pathology of dominant inheritance linked to the mutation of the receptor gene growth factor on chromosome 4p16 fibroblastes FGFR3 responsable rhizomelic dwarfism and multiple complications likely to compromise the functional and vital prognosis of patients.Objective and hypotheses: Find the frequency of neurological complications...

Background: Vitamin D dependent rickets Type 2A (VDDR2A) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to mutation in vitamin D receptor (VDR) leading to hypocalcemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism and signs of rickets. It usually presents with bony deformities along with complete or partial alopecia and is challenging to manage.Objective: We are reporting case series of two siblings with VDDR2A who were managed in a non-co...

Introduction: Sanjad-Sakati-Syndrome (SSS), or hypoparathyroidism-retardation-dysmorphism syndrome (HRDS), is primarily observed in individuals of Middle Eastern descent due to a recessive founder mutation in exon 3 of the TBCE gene. Little is known about disease evolution, endocrine features, management and cause of early death.Aim: To gain better understanding of growth, full phenotypic spectrum, endocrine fea...
