Spondylometepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, Strudwick type

Abstract
A case of spondylometepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, Strudwick type is presented. At birth, this condition cannot be distinguished from spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita. Features in common include delayed ossification of the pubic bones and proximal femoral epiphyses, coxa vara, odontoid hypoplasia and lumbar lordosis. The distinguishing radiologic feature of this condition is the striking irregularity of long bone metaphyses which develops during infancy.
