Prenatal Diagnosis and Management of Generalized Arterial Calcification of Infancy
Clear guidelines are needed regarding prenatal use of bisphosphonate therapy, timing, dosage, and duration of treatment for fetuses with <i>ENPP1</i> gene mutations to minimize disease progression and improve neonatal health at birth. This case further illustrates how involving well-informed parents in decision making can help tailor the appropriate treatment. Our report also describes the possibility of new, ongoing clinical trials that may pave the way for a cure for this child and others.
