Conditions
Brief summary
This is a study designed to determine whether (adult) offspring of parents with familial Paget's disease also develop Paget's disease if they have inherited a predisposing mutation.
Interventions
Offspring of people with familial Paget's disease and mutations in SQSTM1 will have their DNA extracted from leucocytes at baseline. Exons 7 and 8 of SQSTM1 then will be sequenced to determine whether they have inherited the mutation from their parent. If so they will have a bone scan to determine whether there is evidence of Paget's disease.
