Schimke immunoosseous dysplasia (SID) is an autosomal recessive spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia that was first described by Schimke et al. [1971: Lancet 2:1088-1089]. It is associated with premature arteriosclerosis and cerebral ischemia; however, the cerebral vascular abnormalities causing ischemia ha

✦ Synopsis
The clinical phenotype of Schimke immunoosseous dysplasia (SID) is characterized by growth retardation, renal failure, recurrent infections, cerebral infarcts, and skin pigmentation beginning in childhood. We report here on a 4-year-old male child who had all characteristic symptoms of SID, and, in addition, vomiting and prolonged diarrhea. The study results suggest that malabsorption, demonstrated as increased serum immunoglobulin A anti-gliadin antibody, steatorrhea and partial villous atrophy of the jejunal small bowel, is a previously unrecognized feature of SID.
