13. FGF-23 in fibrous dysplasia of bone and its relationship to renal phosphate wasting
FGF-23, a novel member of the FGF family, is the product of the gene mutated in autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR). FGF-23 has been proposed as a circulating factor causing renal phosphate wasting not only in ADHR (as a result of inadequate degradation), but also in tumor-induced osteomalacia (as a result of excess synthesis by tumor cells).

14. Aneurysmal bone cyst of the sphenoid with orbital involvement.
We present a case of aneurysmal bone cyst involving the roof of the orbit and sphenoid bone, with plain film, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings. The natural history and treatment depend on the presence of associated abnormalities such as fibrous dysplasia or a giant cell tumour. In this case the lesion was solitary and was successf

15. A novel technique based on a PNA hybridization probe and FRET principle for quantification of mutant genotype in fibrous dysplasia/McCune–Albright syndrome
Somatic mutations are present in various proportions in numerous developmental pathologies. Somatic activating missense mutations of the GNAS gene encoding the Gsα protein have previously been shown to be the cause of fibrous dysplasia of bone (FD)/McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). Because in MAS patients, tissues as diverse as melanocytes, gonads and bone ar

16. Primary bone tumours of the thoracic skeleton: an audit of the Leeds regional bone tumour registry.
An audit of the Leeds regional bone tumour registry found that primary bone tumours of the thoracic skeleton constituted 90 of the 2004 cases (4.5%). Thirty seven per cent occurred in the ribs, 32% in the scapulae, 11% in the thoracic vertebrae, 11% in the sternum, and 9% in the clavicles. Malignant tumours were more common than benign (54 v 36) and occurred

17. Urinary polypeptides related to collagen synthesis
Of the total urinary hydroxyproline in normal subjects and those with skeletal disorders, between 4 and 20% was nondialyzable. In some patients with Paget's disease of bone, hyperparathyroidism with osteitis fibrosa, hyperphosphatasia, and extensive fibrous dysplasia the total urinary hydroxyproline was sufficiently high to permit purification of this polype
