Radial deficiency-tibial hypoplasia syndrome

Definition

Radial deficiency-tibial hypoplasia syndrome is a rare, genetic dysostosis syndrome with combined reduction defects of upper and lower limbs characterized by bilateral radial aplasia, absent thumbs and bilateral tibial hypo/aplasia. Additional bone anomalies (including partial toe hypo/aplasia, short fibula and clubhand) may be associated. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1996.
