In this issue of Pediatric and Developmental Pathology, Aigner and colleagues report a detailed investigation of cartilage matrix changes in a 14-week fetus with achondrogenesis type IA [ 1 ]. The changes reported differ from matrix alterations observed in achondrogenesis types IB or II and provide insight into the phenotypic and genotypic differences within this group of skeletal dysplasias.

Aim. Achondrogenesis type II is a rare, lethal osteochondrodysplasia with considerable phenotypic heterogeneity. We describe our experience in diagnosing prenatal-onset achondrogenesis type II by a multidisciplinary assessment. Methods. Two cases of fetal achondrogenesis type II were analyzed retrospectively using prenatal ultrasound evaluation, postnatal radiographic diagnosis, and molecular genetic testing of COL2A1. Results. A causative mutation in the COL2A1 gene was found in both patients. Combined with postnatal radiographic examination, the final diagnosis of achondrogenesis type II was made. Conclusion. Our findings emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary assessment for the definitive diagnosis of achondrogenesis type II, which is paramount for proper genetic counseling.

Abstract Background Achondrogenesis type II is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia with a frequency of ~0.2 per 100,000 births. It is one of the lethal short-limbed dwarfisms associated with structural mutations in type II collagen and is also known as Langer-Saldino achondrogenesis. It is characterized by severe micromelia (shortening of entire limb), narrow chest, and prominent abdomen. It shares the striking feature of partial or complete vertebral body demineralization with achondrogenesis type I. Case presentation We present a case with antenatal diagnosis of this rare entity which was confirmed by post-termination radiographs of abortus. Conclusion The imaging plays a cardinal role in the diagnosis of this condition. This case represents only the 4th case of this rare entity from India.
