Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia: an example of radiology guidance to molecular diagnosis
Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia is a rare genetic cause of skeletal dysplasia. Patients usually present skeletal abnormalities but no major visceral malformations or intellectual disability. We report a case of a 2-year-old male patient with short stature, progressive genu varum, and waddling ga...
