INFANTILE CORTICAL HYPEROSTOSIS
Infantile cortical hyperostosis or Caffey disease is a rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the collagen 1 gene. The mechanism of the disease has not yet been fully elucidated, but the most important factor in the pathogenesis and the consequence of the mutation is periosteal inflammation. T...
