Lйri-Weill dyschondrosteosis

Lйri-Weill dyschondrosteosis
a dominantly inherited syndrome caused by mutations in pseudoautosomal region 1 (locus: Ypter-p11.2, Xpter-p22.32), characterized by short stature, mesomelic shortening, and Madelung deformity. Mutations affect the SHOX and SHOXY genes, which encode transcription factors important for skeletal growth. Called also Lйri-Weill syndrome.
