Abstract

The first case of metaphyseal chondrodysplasia with marked cupping of the metaphyses and cone epiphyses combined with complete alopecia was described in 1966 by Bellini. A second identical case was found in another Italian patient. Both show extremely early epiphyseal fusion. This is probably a new form of metaphyseal chondrodysplasia.
