Solution

The correct option is C Myxoedema and osteitis fibrosa cystica
Osteitis fibrosa cystica also known as osteitis fibrosa is a skeletal disorder caused by hyperparathyroidism. This stimulates the activity of osteoclasts, in a process known as osteoclastic bone resorption. Weakening of the bones occurs as their calcified supporting structures are replaced with fibrous tissue (peritrabecular fibrosis), and the formation of cyst-like brown tumors in and around the bone.
Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. It can cause a number of symptoms, such as tiredness, poor ability to tolerate cold, and weight gain.

In case of cretinism, the thyroid hormone is secreted in lesser than normal amounts and it is associated with maternal hypothyroidism.
