title: [Bite anomalies in familial Friedreich's ataxia].
abstract: Besides the spinal bone and foot deformations which are well known in Friedreich's disease, attention is drawn to deformations of the maxillodental system, the state of which was previously not studied. There was a pathology of bite in 16 of the 24 patients with Friedreich's familial ataxia. As a rule, these anomalies were combined with other bone deformations. In 2 families where several patients were examined there was a similar pathology of bite. A study of 24 patients and an examinations of a control group consisting of 151 individuals allows a conclusion that in Friedreich's disease pathology of bite is encountered almost as frequently as deformations of the spine and foot.
