2 genes linked to Periostosis

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Periostosis is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.

Gene	How often it is seen	Conditions
HPGD15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase	Often (30–79%)	In 1 condition
SLCO2A1solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 2A1	Often (30–79%)	In 2 conditions

How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
