Abstract
We report on two sibs with a rare lethal chondrodysplasia born to a non-consanguineous couple. The hallmarks of this affection, also called Blomstrand chondrodysplasia, are short limbs, polyhydramnios, hydrops fetalis, facial anomalies, increased bone density, and a remarkable advance in skeletal maturation. We describe the radiologic and pathologic manifestations in these two cases. This recurrence affecting a male and a female fetus, born to the same couple, suggests autosomal recessive inheritance.
