Two Patients with Severe Short Stature due to a <b><i>FBN1</i></b> Mutation (p.Ala1728Val) with a Mild Form of Acromicric Dysplasia

Abstract

This report broadens the phenotypic spectrum of growth disorders associated with FBN1 mutations. Identical mutations give rise to a wide phenotypic spectrum, ranging from isolated short stature to a more classic picture of GD2 with cardiac involvement, distinct facial dysmorphisms and various skeletal anomalies.
