Conclusions: US is always the fundamental screening exploration for fetal assessment in nonlethal osteochondrodysplasias.
2
Fetal MRI is a valuable exploration, complementary to prenatal ultrasound bringing in very useful details for the diagnosis of osteochondrodysplasias.
3
These results provide direct evidence implicating PTHrP in normal skeletal development and serve to emphasize its potential involvement in human osteochondrodysplasias.
