- Abstract
We report two patients with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD). SIOD is characterised by growth retardation, renal failure, spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia, specific phenotype and defective cellular immunity. These two children demonstrated a bone dysplasia with characteristic radiographic appearances. We postulate that SIOD should be considered in all cases of growth failure with an unclassifiable bone dysplasia. Repeated urine tests for proteinuria could be helpful in reaching the correct diagnosis.
