    Author: Lazjuk GI, Shved IA, Cherstvoy ED, Feshchenko SP.
    Journal: Teratology; 1987 Feb; 35(1):1-8. PubMed ID: 3563928.
    Abstract:
    A comprehensive study (bone roentgenography, arteriography, gross dissection, microscopy of the long bones, and biochemical study of proteoglycan-aggregates in the hyaline cartilage) of the lower limbs in a full-term stillborn with the campomelic syndrome was performed. Hyaline cartilage immaturity of the long bones, dysplasia of growth plates, focal shaft dysplasia, and a defective length of the posterior femur and crus muscles were revealed. The genesis of the bowing and shortening of the long bones in the lower limbs is discussed.
