directly accelerating the differentiation of chondrocytes. HT patients show low serum levels of IGF-I and
reduced IGF bioactivity.9,20
Backeljauw et al.21 reported that children with severe
primary IGF-1 deficiency may have underdeveloped
facial bones (small facial dimensions and a retrognathic
maxilla and mandible). It seems that growth retardation
in HT groups is related to a deficiency of serum IGF-1
levels, and craniofacial growth is under the endocrine
regulation.
Neonatal screening for congenital HT after birth is
important to avoid mentally handicapping conditions
and growth disorders. HT in the newborn period is often
overlooked, and delayed diagnosis leads to the most
severe outcome of HT in developing countries.13 Many
factors, such as lack of awareness about HT among the
health care practitioners and the inaccessibility and
higher cost of the laboratory examinations, play a role
in the limited diagnosis and management of HT.5 This is
especially true for the acquired HT clinical manifestations depend on the age of onset and the length of time
before the disease is effectively treated. Once the HT is
diagnosed, the retardation of skeletal maturity improves quickly after adequate treatment.4 Generally,
the dental development is less responsive to treatments than is skeletal maturity (eg, the height of the
patient). Fortunately, craniofacial growth of HT patients
does not show a modification in growth. Craniofacial
structures are generally affected by the retardation of
growth velocity, which in turn could be treated by an
early orthopedic treatment in early childhood.
In this study, we used two-dimensional imaging to
assess cephalometric parameters in the rats. This
imaging method limits the amount of information to be
gained from analysis, since the three-dimensional
situation is reduced to a two-dimensional projection.
Therefore, future studies should evaluate the relationship using three-dimensional computerized tomography.
CONCLUSIONS
N Palatal, cranial, bizygomatic arch, and bigonial width
measurements were significantly shorter in the prenatal HT and postnatal HT groups compared to the
control group.
N Cephalometric radiographs indicated that statistically
significant differences were present between the
three groups for almost all of the linear and angular
measurements.
