[Léri-Weill dyschondrosteosis].
Three patients showing typical radiological appearances of dyschondrosteosis of Léri-Weill are described. The characteristic features of this syndrome are Madelung's deformity and growth retardation. Autosomal dominant inheritance is assumed, but sporadic cases also occur. In two of our patients--mother and daughter--we were able to confirm the mode of inheritance of this type of mesomelic growth retardation.
