Preferred Label : Acromicric dysplasia;
Symbol : ACMICD;
CISMeF acronym : ACMICD;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Description : Acromicric dysplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by severe short
stature, short hands and feet, joint limitations, and skin thickening. Radiologic
features include delayed bone age, cone-shaped epiphyses, shortened long tubular bones,
and ovoid vertebral bodies. Affected individuals have distinct facial features, including
round face, well-defined eyebrows, long eyelashes, bulbous nose with anteverted nostrils,
long and prominent philtrum, and thick lips with a small mouth. Other characteristic
features include hoarse voice and pseudomuscular build, and there are distinct skeletal
features as well, including an internal notch of the femoral head, internal notch
of the second metacarpal, and external notch of the fifth metacarpal (summary by Le
Goff et al., 2011). Allelic disorders with overlapping skeletal and joint features
include geleophysic dysplasia-2 (614185) and the autosomal dominant form of Weill-Marchesani
syndrome (608328).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the fibrillin 1 gene (FBN1, 134797.0055);
Laboratory abnormalities : Growth cartilage disorganized, with islands of cells and abnormal collagen arrangement;
