Am J Med Genet. 1997 Aug 8;71(2):222-5. doi: 10.1002/(sici)1096-8628(19970808)71:2<222::aid-ajmg20>3.0.co;2-f.

Abstract

Pseudodiastrophic dysplasia is a distinct disorder that differs from diastrophic dysplasia on the basis of elbow and proximal interphalangeal joint dislocations, platyspondyly, and scoliosis. We report on a new patient with this rare skeletal dysplasia and two previously undescribed major malformations: omphalocele and complex heart defect.
