Pyle's Metaphyseal Dysplasia-A case report

UMA SHANKAR RAJU

Abstract


Abstract : Of all the skeletal dysplasias
known, Pyles dysplasia is an extremely
uncommon and rare variety. It is primarily
a metaphyseal dysplasia. We report
here a case of a 60 year old woman who
presented with pathological fracture of
her right tibia and right humerus. The
tibial fracture was managed with interlocking
nailing and the humerus was
treated conservatively.
Keyword :Pyle, Metaphyseal dysplasia,
Interlocking Nailing.
