Abstract
We report a case series of Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda with progressive arthropathy (SEDT-PA) in three siblings. SPEDT-PAis a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia affecting primarily the articular cartilage with characteristic skeletal abnormalities notably in the spine. First reported by Wynne-Davies et al., who estimated it's prevalence to be about 3.4 per million population and an incidence of 1 per 1,00,000 [1]. live births Because of its striking resemblance to juvenile rheumatoid arthritis it has various synonyms like progressive pseudorheumatoid [2]. arthropathy of childhood (PPAC) and progressive pseudorheumatoid dysplasia (PPDA) [MIM No. 208230] In the present context we present three affected siblings of an inbred south Indian Hindu family with one of them having an unique association of Pierre Robin sequence (PRS).
