Abstract
The occurrence of short metacarpal or metatarsal bones is described in 1 patient who fulfilled the original description of pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism but without peripheral calcifications, in 1 patient with Turner''s syndrome and in 6 persons of normal height distributed in two families. In none of these cases were signs of tetany observed. The frequency of short metacarpal bones in a general population consisting of 764 persons was found to be nil.Keywords
