[Micromelia symptomatology and chondrodystrophia calcificans congenita].
The author made a report progress on micromelia symptom on the occasion of a 51 years old patient. It was ascertained that: 146 cm body height with disproportion between trunk and extremities, marked small hands and feet, with positional anomaly of the fingers (clinodaktylia) and toes; calcifications in intraarticular and paraarticular regions particularly in articulation metacarpo- and metatarso-phalangeae; adiposis. The case is interpreted as chondrodystrophia calcificans congenita. The persistent micromelia symptom probable is influenced through additional factor as chondrocalcinosis. Several conceptions on this symptom have been taken into consideration.
