Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Spondylo-megaepiphyseal-metaphyseal dysplasia is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia characterized by disproportionate short stature with a short and stiff neck and trunk; relatively long limbs that may show flexion contractures of the distal joints; delayed and impaired ossification ...
Clinical Description OMIM Silverman and Reiley (1985) suggested the designation spondylo-megaepiphyseal-metaphyseal dysplasia for a novel disorder that they identified in 8 patients. The disorder showed some resemblance to severe cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD; 119600) but lacked the cranial and clavicular features of ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In affected members of 3 families segregating SMMD, Hellemans et al. (2009) identified homozygous inactivating mutations in the NKX3-2 gene (602183.0001-602183.0003). Hellemans et al. (2009) concluded that identification of homozygous inactivating mutations in the NKX3-2 gene underscores the ...
