Dyschondrosteosis
Abstract
The authors present three cases of dyschondrosteosis occurring in a single family unit. The characteristics of the "major" and "minor" forms of this genetically derived chondrosteodysplasia are described. The other members of the family examined presented no signs of the disease, but they were very young. The possibility of successful surgical correction of the deformities caused by dyscondrosteosis is stressed.
