Gardner Syndrome
Explanation
Gardner Syndrome is a type of inherited disorder characterized by the presence of multiple osteomas (benign bone tumors) in various bones and intestinal polyps. The most serious component of this disorder is the development of intestinal polyps, which can lead to an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Other features of Gardner Syndrome may include benign soft tissue tumors, dental abnormalities, and skin cysts. It is caused by mutations in the APC gene and is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Regular screening and surveillance are important for early detection and management of the associated complications.
46.
What type of inherited disorder of the jaw bones and face involves a defect in collagen and results in abnormally-formed bones that fracture easily?
Correct Answer
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Explanation
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a type of inherited disorder of the jaw bones and face that involves a defect in collagen. This defect in collagen leads to the formation of abnormally-shaped bones that are weak and prone to fractures. Individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta often experience multiple fractures throughout their lives, even with minimal trauma or stress on the bones. This condition can also cause other symptoms such as short stature, blue sclerae, and hearing loss.
47.
A milder case of osteogenesis imperfecta is known as blue sclerae?
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
Blue sclerae is a symptom commonly associated with osteogenesis imperfecta, a genetic disorder that affects the bones and causes them to be brittle and prone to fractures. The blue coloration of the sclerae, or the whites of the eyes, is caused by the underlying connective tissue being more translucent and allowing the underlying veins to show through. Therefore, it can be inferred that a milder case of osteogenesis imperfecta may present with blue sclerae.
48.
Teeth that show bulbous crowns, opalescent brown-bluish color, and radiographs reveal no pulp chambers is known as?
Correct Answer
B. Dentinogenesis imperfecta
Explanation
Dentinogenesis imperfecta is the correct answer because it is a condition characterized by teeth that have bulbous crowns, opalescent brown-bluish color, and radiographs that show no pulp chambers. This condition affects the formation of dentin, which is the hard tissue that makes up the majority of the tooth. Amelogenesis imperfecta, on the other hand, is a condition that affects the enamel, the outer layer of the tooth, and does not typically present with the same characteristics described in the question.
49.
Teeth with normal crowns, normal color, but abnormal roots is known as?
Correct Answer
