[Hereditary onycho-osteodysplasia (HOOD)].
Hereditary onycho-osteodysplasia (HOOD) is an autosomal dominant condition, characterized by dysplasia of the nails and joints and extra bone formation at the os ilium. Nephropathy occurs in some families with HOOD. We discuss a patient's history and the results of the study of her family. The incidence of all important features of this syndrome is given. Finally, some methods of treatment and genetic counseling are discussed.
