Acromicric dysplasia

Acromicric dysplasia
Other namesAcromicric skeletal dysplasia [1]

Acromicric dysplasia is an extremely rare inherited disorder characterized by abnormally short hands and feet, growth retardation and delayed bone maturation leading to short stature.[2] Most cases have occurred randomly for no apparent reason (sporadically). However, autosomal dominant inheritance has not been ruled out.

The disorder is different from, but similar to, other syndromic entities such as geleophysic dysplasia, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, and Myhre syndrome.[3]
