| Abstract |
|
Chondrodysplasia punctata is a rare familial disorder of bone, characterized by punctate calcifica-
tion in the epiphyseal regions.
We experienced a case of the rhizomelic type of chondrodysplasia punctata in an one day old
female. She had symmetrical shortening of the proximal limbs, flexion contracture of both hip joints,
cataracts and ichthyotic skin lesion. Radiologic findings showed multiple stippled calcified densities
in most joints and vertebral bodies, and characteristic coronal clefts in deformed lumbar vertebral
bodies
A brief review of literatures was presented. |
