Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia

Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia
This condition is inherited in ab autosomal dominant manner

Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia is a type of chondrodysplasia associated with a deficiency of collagen, type X, alpha 1.[1][2][3]

Unlike other "rickets syndromes", affected individuals have normal serum calcium, phosphorus, and urinary amino acid levels. Long bones are short and curved, with widened growth plates and metaphyses.[4]

It is named for the German researcher F. Schmid, who characterized it in 1949.[5]
