The pattern of shortening of the bones of the hand in PHP and PPHP--A comparison with brachydactyly E, Turner Syndrome, and acrodysostosis

AK Poznanski, EA Werder, A Giedion, A Martin and H Shaw

The patterns of length alterations in the hand bones in cases of pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP), pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP), and acrodysostosis were evaluated. The length of each of the hand bones was measured and compared to appropriate means for age and sex. The pattern profiles thus generated showed that those for PHP and PPHP are almost identical, and are similar to that seen in acrodysostosis, except for the much smaller size of the bones seen in the latter condition. PHP and PPHP are probably differend manifestations of the same entity, and acrodysostosis may also be related to them. Brachydactyly E is indistinguishable radiologically from the PHP-PPHP syndrome.
