Presentation
The findings presented here suggest that type II collagen may function in human cardiogenesis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Most cartilage is later converted to bone, except for the cartilage that continues to cover and protect the ends of bones and is present in the nose and external ears. Prevention - Hypochondrogenesis Not supplied. [checkorphan.org]

Individuals with hypochondrogenesis have an enlarged abdomen and may have a condition called hydrops fetalis in which excess fluid builds up in the body before birth. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]
Characterized by severe micromelia, lack of vertebral ossification, and a large head with relatively normal ossification of the calvarium; also associated with polyhydramnios, cystic hygroma, and hydrops fetalis. [mhmedical.com]
fetalis Treatment and prognosis The prognosis is generally poor, with most infants being stillborn or dying soon after birth. [radiopaedia.org]

Suggestibility
Biochemical studies (see companion paper) suggest that this patient had a new dominant lethal disorder caused by a structural abnormality of type II collagen. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
During the pregnancy, the woman was offered a complete workup including a cardiac, pneumological, orthopaedic and obstetric examinations every month from the 17th to the 32nd week. All parameters remained within the normal range. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

Prognosis
Hypophosphatasia and hypochondrogenesis, in particular, have a poor prognosis. Therefore, assessment of the prognosis is the key to successful management. We report two cases of hypophosphatasia and hypochondrogenesis detected by ultrasonography. [jstage.jst.go.jp]
Prognosis The prognosis for an infant with hypochondrogenesis is bleak. Some infants are stillborn, and those that are live born die shortly after birth due to respiratory failure. Survival can range from a few days to a few weeks. [encyclopedia.com]
