title: Hypochondroplasia: clinical and radiological aspects in 39 cases.
abstract: A retrospective review of 39 cases of hypochondroplasia revealed consistent but variable degrees of clinical and radiological features sufficient to allow differentiation from other well-established metaphyseal chondrodysplasias. Macrocephaly was noted in approximately half the cases. This contradicts a finding of normocephaly in previous studies.
