Abstract
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare autosomal dominant pleiotropic disorder characterized by dysplasia of the nails, patellar aplasia or hypoplasia, iliac horns and dysplasia of the elbows. We present a case of a 56-year-old female presenting with bilateral knee pain, where initial radiographic findings of hypoplastic patellae prompted further investigation, revealing characteristic skeletal anomalies consistent with NPS. This case underscores the importance of recognizing radiological clues and conducting thorough clinical evaluation to diagnose rare genetic conditions such as NPS.
