Short rib-polydactyly syndrome, type Verma-Naumoff.
A case of perinatal lethal dwarfism is described: owing to its clinical, radiological and histologic features the case can be classified as SRP syndrome type III (Verma-Naumoff). On the basis of the radiological features and--particularly--of those of the growing cartilage, stress is laid on the importance of these studies for a proper classification of such rate and not completely known chondrodysplastic dwarfisms.
