TI  - Histocompatibility antigens in Osgood-Schlatter disease.
PG  - 302-5
AB  - Eighteen unrelated children (12 boys and six girls) with Osgood-Schlatter disease 
      (OSD) were evaluated by history, physical examination, and histocompatibility 
      antigen [human leukocyte antigen (HLA)] determination. Four boys and two girls 
      had pain at sites other than the tibial tuberosity. By history, other related 
      individuals with a diagnosis of OSD were found in six of the 18 families. The 
      distributions of HLA antigens (A, B, and DR) were not demonstrably abnormal. The 
      similarity of OSD and enthesitis accompanying HLA-B27-associated arthropathy may 
      cause diagnostic difficulty. The lack of an association between OSD and HLA-B27 
      may be of assistance in differentiating the two disorders.
