Included titles and symbols : Hypochondrogenesis;
Description : Achondrogenesis type II is characterized by severe micromelic dwarfism with small
chest and prominent abdomen, incomplete ossification of the vertebral bodies, and
disorganization of the costochondral junction. This form is an autosomal dominant
trait occurring mostly as new mutations. However, somatic and germline mosaicism have
been reported (summary by Comstock et al., 2010).;
