Multidisciplinary approach in diagnosis and treatment of Fong disease.

Nail-patella syndrome, also known as Fong disease, is an uncommon autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a distinctive set of features, including fingernail abnormalities, hypoplastic patellae, radial head dislocation, and iliac horns. This condition often leads to patellar subluxation or dislocation, resulting in knee instability and pain. While existing literature predominantly focuses on the clinical and radiological aspects of nail-patella syndrome-related knee manifestations, only a limited number of articles delve into a meticulous approach to the condition with a comprehensive strategy for diagnosis. We present an atypical case of Fong disease distinguished by unique genetic characteristics and subsequently subjected to a thorough clinical assessment and a meticulously planned operative treatment regimen.
