    ObjectiveAutosomal-recessive hypophosphataemic rickets type 2 (ARHR2) is a rare disease that is reported in survivors of generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI).Design, Patients and MeasurementThe objective of this study was to characterize a multicenter paediatric cohort with ARHR2 due to ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 1 (ENPP1) deficiency and with a diagnosis of GACI or GACI-related findings. The clinical, biochemical and genetic characteristics of the patients were retrospectively retrieved.ResultsWe identified 18 patients from 13 families diagnosed with ARHR2. Fifteen of the patients had an ENPP1 variation confirmed with genetic analyses, and three were siblings of one of these patients, who had clinically diagnosed hypophosphataemic rickets (HRs) with the same presentation. From nine centres, 18 patients, of whom 12 (66.7%) were females, were included in the study. The mean age at diagnosis was 4.2 +/- 2.2 (1.6-9) years. The most frequently reported clinical findings on admission were limb deformities (66.6%) and short stature (44.4%). At diagnosis, the mean height SD was -2.2 +/- 1.3. Five of the patients were diagnosed with GACI in the neonatal period and treated with bisphosphonates. Other patients were initially diagnosed with ARHR2, but after the detection of a biallelic variant in the ENPP1 gene, it was understood that they previously had clinical findings associated with GACI. Three patients had hearing loss, and two had cervical fusion. After the treatment of HRs, one patient developed calcification, and one developed intimal proliferation.ConclusionARHR2 represents one manifestation of ENPP1 deficiency that usually manifests later in life than GACI. The history of calcifications or comorbidities that might be associated with GACI will facilitate the diagnosis in patients with ARHR2, and patients receiving calcitriol and phosphate medication should be carefully monitored for signs of calcification or intimal proliferation.

    Proximal hypospadias and 46XY disorder of sex development; which patient with hypospadias needs to be investigated?
    (2021) Bayramoglu, Elvan; Bas, Veysel Nijat; Aycan, Zehra
    Aim: This study examines the distribution of genital abnormalities based on physical examination of our patients with 46, XY disorders of sex development (46, XY DSD), and aims to define severity and frequency of hypospadias in 46, XY DSD. Hypospadias is a relatively prevalent congenital anomaly. Although genetic, environmental and hormonal factors are considered to be responsible, etiology is not clarified in several hypospadias cases. Materials and Methods: Clinical, laboratory and genetic records of all cases with 46, XY DSD, who were evaluated by the sex determination monitoring board were retrospectively reviewed. In the diagnosis, hypospadias cases were examined in terms of the place of hypospadias and coexisting other external genital findings. Results: There were 72 patients with 46, XY DSD. 5-α reductase deficiency [n=32 (44.4%)] was the most commonly encountered diagnosis followed by androgen insensitivity syndrome [n=26, (36.1%)]. Proximal hypospadias were presented in 44.4% (n: 32) of the cases and only 6 of them (18.8%) were isolated hypospadias. In 81.2% of these cases, at least one of the anomalies such as cordi, bifid scrotum, undescended testis and micropenis accompanied proximal hypospadias. None of the distal hypospadias cases were referral clinic finding. Conclusions: 46 XY DSD is a heterogeneous group of patients with a varying age of presentation and a diverse clinical profile. It can be stated that proximal hypospadias is the most common referral clinic finding of 46, XY DSD, and the risk of 46, XY DSD increases with the intensifying degree of hypospadias and the presence of coexisting genital abnormalities such as cordi, bifid scrotum, undescended testis and micropenis.
