title: [Costovertebral dysplasia].
abstract: Costovertebral dysplasia is characterized by dysmorphic dwarfism at the expense of the trunk, with typical costal and vertebral anomalies that cause displacement of the intrathoracic and intra-abdominal organs and reduced pulmonary function. There is a recessive severe variety manifested in the newborn and a rare dominant form which is more benign.
