Prepubertal periodontitis: a genetic analysis.

Genetic factors were recognized as possible predisposing factors in the etiopathogenesis of prepubertal periodontitis (PP). Consequently, the present work was carried out to determine the possible mode of inheritance and if there were any associated chromosomal aberrations in cases with PP. The study included 3 families with probands manifesting PP (the families included 18 individuals). Pedigree analysis was carried out as well as chromosomal analysis. The results pointed out to the possibility of new mutations arising due to various environmental factors (including the use of pesticides and their handling), in addition to a possible autosomal recessive inheritance. Chromosomal analysis showed no association between a certain chromosomal aberration and PP. An interesting finding was that a girl proband proved to be Xo female, i.e. a case of Turner's syndrome. This could be considered the first report of Turner's syndrome with PP.
