Osteochondrodystrophies with marked platyspondyly and distinctive peripheral anomalies
Abstract
Two patients with a unique generalised bone dysplasia demonstrating severe distinctive platyspondyly are reported. This group of crippling disorders defies metabolic and histological classification. The radiographic examination is, at present, the only practical method of documentation of these rare disorders.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
