Short limbed skeletal dysplasia associated with combined immunodeficiency and congenital subglottic stenosis: a new constellation of features.
A newborn male is described with an association of short limbed dwarfism with hip dislocation, combined immunodeficiency characterized by absent B cells and CD4 lymphopaenia and congenital subglottic stenosis. This constellation of abnormalities is distinct from other described skeletal dysplasias associated with immunodeficiency such as ADA deficiency and cartilage hair hypoplasia.
