What is the definition of Gerodermia Osteodysplastica?
Geroderma osteodysplastica is a rare disease characterized by lax, wrinkled skin, loose joints, and a typical face with a prematurely aged appearance. Bone problems may include severe osteoporosis leading to frequent fractures, underdeveloped cheekbones and jaw (malar and mandibular hypoplasia), and a variable degree of growth deficiency. This condition is caused by genetic changes in the GORAB gene. Inheritance is autosomal recessive.
