Cleidocranial dysostosis (CCD) is a skeletal dysplasia with predominantpredominantly membranous bone involvement. It carries an autosomal dominant inheritance 4.

Pathology

It is characterised by incomplete ossification of skeletal structures inclusive of the clavicle as well as defective development of the pubic bones, vertebral column, and long bones 5.

Clinical features

  • large head, with large fontenelles with delayed closure
  • broad mandible
  • supernumerary teeth
  • high arched palate
  • neonatal distress due to thorax being narrowed and bell shaped
  • excessively mobile shoulders
  • may have genu valgum and short fingers

Radiographic features

Chest
Pelvis
  • hypoplasia of iliac bones
  • absent / delayed/delayed ossification of the pubic bone (pseudo widening-widening of the symphysis pubis)
