Analysis of 9 cases of bilateral bent limbs (campomelia) and dwarfism, as well as a review of the literature, indicate that campomelic syndrome appears to be a well-defined distinct disorder which the authors call long-limbed campomelic syndrome. Other neonates with congenital bent-limbed dwarfism can be classified as having short-limbed campomelic syndrome, and among these at least two distinct forms have been delineated--the craniosynostotic and the normocephalic form. Congenital bent bones also occur in a variety of generalized disorders of ossification that must be distinguished from these well-defined types of campomelic dwarfism.
