Description : This form of brachyolmia, here designated brachyolmia type 4, is characterized by
short-trunk stature with normal intelligence and facies. The radiographic features
include rectangular vertebral bodies with irregular endplates and narrow intervertebral
discs, precocious calcification of rib cartilages, short femoral neck, mildly shortened
metacarpals, and mild epiphyseal and metaphyseal changes of the tubular bones (summary
by Miyake et al., 2012).;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the 3-prime-phosphoadenosine 5-prime-phosphosulfate synthase
2 gene (PAPSS2, 603005.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Elevated androstenedione and testosterone; DHEA sulfotransferase below limit of detection; Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) at upper level of normal range;
