A rare multiple epiphyseal dysplasia characterized by mild short stature, joint pain and early-onset osteoarthropathy, frequently requiring joint replacement. Radiographs from affected individuals may manifest features typical of Desbuquois dysplasia, including irregularly shaped capital femoral epiphyses, a short femoral neck (resembles the ''Swedish key'' appearance of the proximal femur) and advanced carpal ossification in the hands. However, some other features typical of Desbuquois dysplasia like joint dislocations, scoliosis, coronal clefts, or other hand anomalies including accessory ossification centers and/or delta phalanx are not observed. Anterior wedging of vertebral bodies, small epiphyses at the knees with metaphyseal flare may be present. Patients have normal metacarpal and phalangeal lengths, no distinctive facies nor neurologic complications.
