achondrogenesis - malformations of bone and cartilage
Definition for achondrogenesis
Achondrogenesis is a number of disorders which are the most severe form of congenital chondrodysplasia (malformation of bones and cartilage).
more
Achondrogenesis is a number of disorders which are the most severe form of congenital chondrodysplasia (malformation of bones and cartilage). These conditions are characterized by a small body, short limbs, and other skeletal abnormalities. As a result of their serious health problems, infants with achondrogenesis are usually born prematurely, are stillborn, or die shortly after birth from respiratory failure. Some infants, however, have lived for a while with intensive medical support.
