Odontochondrodysplasia

Definition:

Odontochondrodysplasia (ODCD), also known as Goldblatt syndrome, is a genetic disorder of skeletal and dental development. Clinical findings are short stature, narrow chest, mesomelic limb shortening, brachydactyly, joint laxity, and dental anomalies. It has been shown that ODCD is caused by mutations in TRIP11 that encodes golgi-associated microtubule-binding protein (GMAP210). TRIP11 is essential for normal skeletal development and endochondral ossification.
