Abstract
|
|
|
|
Achondroplasia is abnormal intracartilagenous ossification that’s caused by a genetic point mutation. Thoracic myelopathy in achondroplasia that is due to thoracolumbar kyphosis and spinal stenosis is a rare finding. There is no report available on this topic in Korea. We report here a case of achondroplasia with thoracic myelopathy due to thoracolumbar kyphosis and spinal stenosis, and we include a brief review of literature.
