Abstract
|
|
|
|
Infantile cortical hyperostosis, also called Caffey’s disease, is characterized by radiological evidence of cortical hyperostosis, soft tissue swelling, fever and irritability. But, the etiology of this disease remains unclear. Familial occurrence has been documented in the previous literatures. We report infantile cortical hyperostosis that occurred in first cousins with relevant reference.
