title: Spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda. The X-linked variety in three brothers.
abstract: Three brothers with the X-linked variety of spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia tarda are presented. Their clinical courses differed: one was relatively free of symptoms, the second had slowly progressive osteoarthritis of the hip, and the third had an acute, disabling arthritis necessitating total hip arthroplasty. The clinical features of this disorder are reviewed.
