Abstract
A case of juvenile osteopetrosis in a 10-year-old girl, including the skeletal, hematologic, and neurologic features, is described. Ankylosis of cementum to bone was evident in histologic sections, providing a possible explanation for the delayed or impaired eruption of teeth. A summary of the literature on the pathogenesis of osteopetrosis is presented.Entities:
