title: Carpal and tarsal osteolysis.
abstract: A 19-year-old girl with carpal and tarsal osteolysis has been presented. The clinical course was characterized by normal early growth and motor development followed by the insidious onset in early childhood of a progressive, peripheral joint destruction, especially in the tarsal and carpal bones. The patient's course was complicated by acquired spasticity from platybasia, scoliosis, generalized muscle weakness, mild growth failure and corneal clouding.
