Disease definition

Short rib-polydactyly syndrome, Verma-Naumoff type is a short rib-polydactyly syndrome characterized by short limb dwarfism, short ribs with thoracic dysplasia, postaxial polydactyly and protuberant abdomen. Associated multiple malformations include cardiovascular defects, renal agenesis /hypoplasia, abnormal cloacal development (ambiguous genitalia, anal atresia) and cerebellar hypoplasia. Short rib-polydactyly syndrome, Verma-Naumoff type follows an autosomal recessive mode of transmission. The disease is usually fatal in the perinatal period.
