Spondyloperipheral dysplasia is a disorder that impairs bone growth. The signs and symptoms of this condition can vary among affected individuals. People with spondyloperipheral dysplasia typically have short stature, with a short torso, short arms and legs, and short fingers and toes (brachydactyly). These parts of the body are not proportional to one another (disproportionate short stature) in people with this condition. Affected individuals also tend to have flattened bones of the spine (platyspondyly) and inward- and upward-turning feet (clubfoot). Some people with spondyloperipheral dysplasia may also experience nearsightedness (myopia) or hearing loss.
