Nestor–Guillermo progeria syndrome

Nestor–Guillermo progeria syndrome (NGPS) is an extremely rare autosomal recessive progeroid disorder. Like other progeria syndromes, it is characterized by premature aging with an aged physical appearance, osteolysis (destruction or loss of bone tissue), osteoporosis (a disease that makes bones weak and brittle), scoliosis (abnormal lateral curvature of the spine), and lipoatrophy (loss of subcutaneous fat tissue).
