Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome: a rare case of disharmonious short stature

Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a genetic disease characterized by craniofacial and skeletal malformations including short stature, brachydactyly, with ulnar or radial deviation of the fingers, clinodactyly and early joint dysplasia, especially of the hips. The most remarkable craniofacia...
