  Craniodiaphyseal dysplasia: An unusual cause of recurrent dacryocystitis Shivanand G, Kandpal H - Indian J Ophthalmol
Craniodiaphyseal dysplasia is a very severe bone dysplasia characterized by "massive hyperostosis and sclerosis involving skull and facial bones".
Craniodiaphyseal dysplasia is the rarest of all sclerosing bone dysplasia, so far less than 30 cases have been reported in the English literature.
In craniotubular dysplasia, there is metaphyseal widening and cortical thinning giving rise to club-shaped configuration of long bones whereas in craniodiaphyseal dysplasia the diaphyseal widening gives rise to cylindrical appearance, however, the skull changes are nearly the same except for prominence of the supra-orbital ridge.

Craniometaphyseal dysplasia is a rare genetic bone remodeling disorder characterized by undertubulation of the long bones, especially in the lower extremities, causing deformities of the metaphyses of the long bones, and sclerosis of the skull base or cranial bone hyperostosis.
In craniodiaphyseal dysplasia the extent and anatomical distribution of the disorder are the source for differentiation (Beighton, 1995).
Frontometaphyseal dysplasia is a disorder of bone metabolism with X-linked inheritance, which results clinically in the protuberance of the supraorbital ridges, hypertelorism without thickening of the nose root and paranasal region, deficiency in mandibular growth, loss of hearing, genu recurvatum and unusual mental retardation.

Craniodiaphyseal dysplasia (CDD) is a rare sclerotic bone disorder with a variable phenotypic expression.
Most described cases of CDD were sporadic, but one case of apparent recessive condition has been reported, in a mother and her daughter with greater degree of hyperostosis and sclerosis than that described for other patients with craniodiaphyseal dysplasia, and significant metaphyseal involvement.
Early recognition is crucial in these conditions as therapy directed at the underlying bony defect has the best chance of success if initiated in infancy.
