New insights in congenital bowing of the femora.
The aim of this study is to review the clinical, radiological and molecular findings of the bent bone dysplasia group including Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome due to LIFR mutations, Compomelic dysplasia due to SOX9 mutations and Kyphomelic dysplasia with no known molecular bases.
