Title: Madelung deformity as a feature of the Leri-Layani-Weill syndrome or dyschondrosteosis. Author: Sharif K, Saint-Martin C, Clapuyt P. Journal: J Belge Radiol; 1997 Dec; 80(6):292-3. PubMed ID: 9479892. Abstract: We report and discuss a case of a Madelung's deformity seen on a wrist roentgenogram of a young girl who is referred for short stature evaluation, which led to the diagnosis of Léri-Weill syndrome or dyschondrosteosis. The authors stress that it is possible to make an accurate diagnosis on a single standard roentgenogram, at low cost, if the different diagnostic criteria are known.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
