Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) was first described by Schimke in 1971. It is a rare, autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterized by facial dysmorphism, spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia (SED), T-cell immunodeficiency, and nephrotic syndrome (NS). Although the exact prevalence is unknown, it is estimated to range from 1:1,000,000 to 1:3,000,000 live births.
