A pathologic condition caused by an absent or defective gene is typically referred to as a genetic disorder. These disorders can lead to a wide range of health problems, depending on the specific gene affected and the extent of the mutation. Symptoms can vary widely, and treatment options may include managing symptoms or addressing the underlying genetic cause.

A fracture of bones related to cancer or tumor in the bone is called a pathologic fracture.
The MPS disorders are caused by absent or insufficient production of proteins known as lysosomal enzymes The specific enzyme that is deficient or absent distinguishes one type of MPS from another
The condition that is caused is a trisomy or a monosomy
Certain medications used to control seizures may cause an oral condition known as gingival enlargement or gingival overgrowth, increasing the risk of periodontal disease, tooth decay, and oral infections.Gingival enlargement, the currently accepted terminology for an increase in the size of the gingiva, is a common feature of gingival disease.[1] This is strictly a clinical description of the condition and avoids the erroneous pathologic connotations of terms used in the past such as hypertrophic gingivitis or gingival hyperplasia. Gingival enlargement can be caused by a number of various stimuli, and "treatment is based on an understanding of the cause and underlying pathologic changes.
Pathology is from the ancient Greek words "pathos" and "logos". The current definition means "the study of disease, from initation to final outcome".
A pathologic fracture is a broken bone that's caused by a disease, rather than an injury. Some conditions weaken your bones, which makes them more likely to break. Everyday things, such as coughing, stepping out of a car, or bending over can fracture a bone that's been weakened by an illness.
