Spondyloperipheral dysplasia
Spondyloperipheral dysplasia is a disorder that impairs bone growth. The signs and symptoms of this condition can vary among affected individuals. People with spondyloperipheral dysplasia typically have short stature, with a short torso, short arms and legs, and short fingers and toes (brachydactyly). These parts of the body are not proportional to one another (disproportionate short stature) in people with this condition. Affected individuals also tend to have flattened bones of the spine (platyspondyly) and inward- and upward-turning feet (clubfoot). Some people with spondyloperipheral dysplasia may also experience nearsightedness (myopia) or hearing loss. [from MedlinePlus Genetics]
Acromesomelic dysplasia 2C, Hunter-Thompson type
Acromesomelic dysplasia-2C (AMD2C) is characterized by skeletal abnormalities restricted to the limbs; the craniofacial skeleton and axial skeletal structures are normal. The severity of the long bone shortening progresses in a proximal to distal direction. The hands and feet are most severely affected, but the distal phalanges are relative normal. Affected individuals have joint dislocations but the number of joints involved is not constant (summary by Thomas et al., 1996). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of acromesomelic dysplasia, see AMD1 (602875). [from OMIM]
