Abstract (EN):
Two different forms of dyssegmental dysplasia, mild and severe, can be distinguished on clinical, radiographic and chondro-osseous morphologic grounds. The milder Rolland-Desbuquois type is frequently characterised by survival beyond the newborn period. The lethal Silverman-Handmaker type has distinctive and more severe findings. In this paper, a rare case of the Rolland-Desbuquois type is presented. The case is unusual because although it was the milder form, the child died on the 10th day of life.
