"Revised to reflect the latest advances, the 5th edition of this book: brings you new and expanded coverage of CT, MRI, and ultrasonographic manifestations; provides several illustrative examples of the evolution of a syndrome from infancy to adult life; includes more than 100 new skeletal dysplasias, covering everything from their frequency and clinical and radiological manifestations ... to modes of inheritance and differential diagnosis; presents genetic information on syndromes and disorders, while also covering a number of non-genetic entities; features an expanded Chromosome disorders section that includes guidance on when to test for these conditions; includes a section on Gamuts that helps you look up conditions based on individual traits; and offers an updated Brachydactyly section for the latest guidance in addressing these isolated disorders." "Short, concise descriptions of entities help you glean the most information in the least time, and an alphabetical organization expedites access to the specific information you need for common and uncommon conditions."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

The first edition of this book provided a convenient passage through the minefield of skeletal dysplasia terminology and diag nosis, and has proved of immense value to its users. In the ten years since publication, many more syndromes have inevitably been described, the terminology has been revised, and the aetiology of a number of these conditions has been elucidated. The terminology used in the book is firmly based on the 1992 revision of the International Nomenclature. It is pleasing to see how this terminology is being accepted in the world literat ure, with a re duction in the confusion previously engendered by different usages. Readers of the book will find more than bare gamut listings. The abnormalities are carefully subdivided to allow a logical progres sion of thought and discovery; the entries include a variety of non dysplastic conditions which come into the differential diagnosis and there are many short interpolations which provide additional help to the searcher in problem areas. You will not find these fea tures in a computer database; they are the product of thoughtful ness and vast knowledge of the conditions in their clinical contexts. The process is further advanced by the series of summaries of the dysplasias and other syndromes; this section contains all of the con ditions listed in the International Nomenclature, plus others, and provides confirmation or exclusion of possible diagnoses and appropriate suggestions for further reading. This new edition will add significantly to the well-deserved pop ularity of the first edition.

The tremendous expansion of medical knowledge during the last few decades, together with the introduction of many new diagnostic techniques, has demanded such a degree of specialisation that no single individual can be conversant with all the information available. More and more emphasis, therefore, has been placed on the importance of teamwork and close collaboration between associated disciplines. The bone dysplasias of infancy represent a classical example of this concept. Only a few years ago these heritable conditions were divided into a relatively small number of entities, for many of which "atypical variants" were accepted. More recent studies have resulted in appreciation and early recognition of a large number of these disorders, thanks to co-operation between paediatricians, radiologists, geneticists and biochemists. Not only maya reasonably accurate prognosis be offered for the affected child in many instances, but, almost of greater value, genetic counselling concerning the chance of subsequent offspring being similarly affected has become available to parents. Most radiologists have little opportunity of becoming familiar with this rapidly widening field of diagnosis, so that the occasional case which may be encountered is likely to engender diagnostic difficulty. This Atlas should facilitate greatly the solution of the problem. It has been prepared by Professor CREMIN, an outstanding paediatric radiologist whose work has been known and admired by me for many years, in close collaboration with his colleague Professor BEIGHTON, a geneticist of great distinction.

This atlas is intended to give obstetricians, paediatricians, neonatologists, radiologists, molecular and clinical geneticists and anatomo-pathologists, a thorough insight into conditions (and variants) of skeletal dysplasias. Clinical and imaging findings are properly illustrated, enriched by updated genetic information. This acclaimed text returns in a revised form, with updated material, particularly on the new knowledge surrounding the genetic basis and mechanism for the various skeletal dysplasias. No clinician dealing with fetal or neonatal skeletal diagnosis or treatment will want to be without access to the wealth of illustrations and detail condensed here. Presents a clear and consistent rubric for approaching approximately 150 types of skeletal dysplasias Meets the needs of clinical gynaecologists, obstetricians, paediatricians, radiologists and geneticists Offers an essential, concise resource for the diagnosis of skeletal dysplasias which present prenatally and perinatally

The skeleton is involved to a significant extent in more than 500 genetic and congenital syndromes and although the majority of these are individually rare, collectively they are not uncommon. Diagnostic precision, which is crucial for accurate prognostica tion and effective management, is frequently dependent upon recognition of radiological stigmata. For this reason the radiologist plays a key role in the appraisal and investigation of persons with disorders of this type. With these points in mind we have written this handbook for use in the radiographic reporting room. We have endeavored to provide the essential information which will facilitate radiodiagnosis and have striven for clarity and accuracy. We believe that our objective will be achieved by means of the 'gamut' format which we have employed. In Section 1 we have addressed the problem of diagnosis of generalized skeletal abnormalities, while Section 2 is based upon an anatomical or regional approach. Lists of conditions are given in order of prevalence or importance. Our gamut has been deliberately simplified and only the most important and easily recognized radiographic stigmata have been taken into account. Pertinent clinical, radiographic, and genetic information for each syndromic entity is provided in Section 3, where the disorders are placed in alphabetical order. This section also contains relevant references which are as up to date as possible.
