Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the clinical features of 14 cases with clinically and genetically diagnosed progressive pseudorheumatoid dysplasia(PPRD) and analyze the characteristics of joint lesions caused by PPRD to provide references for clinical diagnosis and treatment of PPRD.Methods:A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data and genetic test data of 14 patients admitted to Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics and cooperative units, from December 2017 to September 2023.An observational retrospective analysis was performed on hospitalization and follow-up data, and correlation factors were analyzed using the Kendall correlation test.Results:The 14 patients, including 6 males and 8 females, were all Chinese Han children.The average age of onset was 6.12 years(2-11 years), the average age of diagnosis was 10.61 years old(5-17 years old), and the average duration of the disease was 4.46 years(0.5-6.0 years) at diagnosis.The number of joint involvements ranged from 4 to 14, with an average of 9.20.There were 12 patients with claudication as the first symptom.All these 14 children had limited hip mobility and no obvious hip pain.The hip joint imaging indicated that space narrowing occurred in 11 cases, femoral neck shortening in 2 cases, femoral head displacement in 4 cases, and articular surface sclerosis, cystic degeneration or bone destruction in 8 cases.The joints of the four limbs were mainly manifested as enlargement of the proximal interphalangeal joints and metacarpophalangeal joints of both hands.The other joints were knees(11 cases), elbows(8 cases), wrists(7 cases) and ankles(5 cases) in the order of easy involvement, and the shoulder joint was less involved(1 case).The spine was mainly characterized by changes in the curvature, and limited movement was found in 8 cases.Thoracic and lumbar spines were mainly involved(13 cases), while cervical involvement was rare(1 case).The duration of the disease at diagnosis was positively correlated with the number of joint involvements and the number of joint mobility limitations( r=0.584, 0.671; P=0.007, 0.002).In this study, 8 children were misdiagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and the longest misdiagnosis time was 6 years.All the 14 children had CCN6 gene mutations, including 10 complex heterozygous mutations and 4 homozygous mutations.Five children had c. 342T>G and c. 667T>G, 4 children had c. 589 + 2(IVS4)T>C, 3 children had c. 866dup, and 2 children had c. 136C>T and c. 624dupA. Conclusions:PPRD is characterized by multiple joint involvements, among which hip involvement is the most common.The lesions are serious and easily misdiagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis.The number of affected joints increases gradually with the prolongation of the disease course.
