A novel homozygous mutation in FGFR3 causes tall stature, severe lateral tibial deviation, scoliosis, hearing impairment, camptodactyly, and arachnodactyly.

TL;DR: This is the first report of a homozygous loss‐of‐function mutation in FGFR3 in human that results in a skeletal overgrowth syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
