Wolman disease (also known as osteopetrosis or osteosclerosis) is a rare hereditary disease characterized by a disorder of bone tissue metabolism. The main feature of the disease is a significant increase in bone density as a result of insufficient functionality of osteoclasts - cells responsible for bone resorption (destruction). This leads to abnormal accumulation of bone mass, which causes a violation of the structural integrity of the skeleton, a predisposition to fractures and various other complications. Wolman disease can manifest itself in specialized forms with different levels of severity and clinical manifestations. In most cases, it is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Without timely intervention, the disease can lead to significant functional limitations and a decrease in the quality of life.<\/p>\n
