Cat (Felis catus) — knees and teeth syndrome (hereditary; OMIA-verified species predisposition)
Source: first-hand OMIA (University of Sydney) species-specific hereditary-disorder record, saved verbatim to source_file; every claim below is a C1 byte-substring of it.
Claims
Species: Cat (Felis catus)Disorder: knees and teeth syndromeClin feat: Bell et al. (2023): "PADS is clinically characterized by insufficiency fractures of the patella and in many cases fractures of other bones, persistent deciduous teeth, and unerupted permanent teeth [Langley-Hobbs & Ball, 2005; Langley-Hobbs, 2009; Reyes et al., 2019; Howes et al., 2019]. Clinical and radiographic abnormalities in the skull and dentition of cats with PADS have been reported with osteomyelitis as a potential complication [Howes et al., 2019]."
