Periodontal findings in Cohen syndrome with chronic neutropenia.
[cohen syndrome]
Radiographic
periodontal
status
and
microbiological
findings
of
periodontal
pockets
in
subjects
with
Cohen
syndrome
are
presented
in
this
report
.
This
hereditary
disorder
causes
mental
retardation
,
and
neutropenia
is
one
feature
of
the
syndrome
.
Fifteen
patients
with
Cohen
syndrome
and
15
controls
matched
for
age
and
sex
and
,
as
far
as
possible
,
according
to
the
degree
of
mental
retardation
were
examined
.
Alveolar
bone
loss
was
evaluated
from
the
panoramic
radiographs
.
Two
subgingival
samples
were
obtained
from
the
most
affected
anterior
and
posterior
periodontal
sites
in
each
dentate
subject
and
examined
for
the
occurrence
of
Actinobacillus
actinomycetemcomitans
,
Porphyromonas
gingivalis
,
Prevotella
intermedia
/
nigrescens
,
Peptostreptococcus
micros
,
Bacteroides
forsythus
,
and
Campylobacter
rectus
.
Subjects
with
Cohen
syndrome
had
alveolar
bone
loss
more
frequently
and
the
bone
loss
was
more
extensive
(
Mann-
Whitney
U-
test
:
P
<
0
.
05
)
than
in
the
controls
.
They
also
harbored
one
or
several
of
the
putative
periodontal
pathogens
(
Mann-
Whitney
U-
test
:
P
<
0
.
001
)
more
often
than
the
controls
.
We
conclude
that
subjects
with
Cohen
syndrome
have
increased
susceptibility
to
early
periodontal
breakdown
which
is
likely
to
be
associated
with
neutropenia
.
