Abstract

The case of a 55-year-old woman with Thieberge--Weissenbach syndrome is presented in this report. The disease was recognized as a separate diagnostic entity in 1985. This study is focused on the clinical features and the course of the syndrome. Over a period of 17 years multiple X-ray examinations of the affected organs were performed. The role of radiography for the dynamic follow-up of the disease course is discussed.
