Description : Pseudoachondroplasia is an autosomal dominant osteochondrodysplasia characterized
by disproportionate short stature, deformity of the lower limbs, brachydactyly, loose
joints, and ligamentous laxity. Vertebral anomalies, present in childhood, usually
resolve with age, but osteoarthritis is progressive and severe. PSACH and EDM1 comprise
a clinical spectrum with phenotypic overlap between mild forms of PSACH and EDM1 (summary
by Briggs and Chapman, 2002).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutations in cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP, 600310.0001);
