Presentation
Two cases were observed at clinical examination presenting severe dwarfism with shortening of the middle and distal segments of the limbs. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]
In the present review, we have discussed clinical spectrum, genetics and signalopathies of isolated acromesomelic dysplasias. Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The study presented here investigated three consanguineous families (A, B, C) segregating AMDM in an autosomal recessive manner. Linkage in the families was established to the NPR2 gene on chromosome 9p12-21. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]
