Kenny-Caffey syndrome

People with this condition may have unusual changes in their long bones, including increased thickness and hardening (sclerosis), as well as short stature. There can also be differences in the size and shape of the head and eyes. A common finding in affected individuals is hypoparathyroidism, which can lead to low levels of calcium in the blood.

Common signs and symptoms include thickening and hardening of the long bones, short stature, and anomalies affecting the head and eyes. Many people with this condition also experience hypoparathyroidism with low calcium levels, which can affect various body functions.
