  • Title: A case of femur-fibular-ulna complex with peculiar metaphyseal changes.
    Author: Ludwig K, Tenconi R, Salmaso R.
    Journal: Fetal Pediatr Pathol; 2010; 29(4):255-60. PubMed ID: 20594150.
    Abstract:
    Femur-fibular-ulna (FFU) complex is an unusual, sporadically occurring limb malformation disorder, characterized by a highly variable combination of congenital defects of the femur, the fibula and/or the ulna, which tend to be associated. We report the case of a fetus with FFU complex and additional striking metaphyseal anomalies of the lower limbs and an abnormal chondrocyte organization pattern. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of histologic metaphyseal alterations in association with the FFU complex.
