Mesomelic Dwarfism as the Homozygous Expression of Dyschondrosteosis

Abstract
Pedigree analysis in this kindred is compatible with an autosomal dominant inheritance. The parents and three other family members have clinical and radiological features of dyschondrosteosis. The two propositi, a boy and a girl, have mesomelic dwarfism and hypoplasia of the mandible, ulna, and fibula. It is our interpretation that mesomelic dwarfism is the clinical manifestation of the homozygous state for dyschondrosteosis.
