short-rib polydactyly syndrome type 2

MIM.263520

Majewski syndrome, SRPS II, SRPS2

The Majewski type of Short Rib-Polydactyly syndrome is a rare lethal dwarfism syndrome that has recently been recognized as a distinct entity. This autosomal recessive inheritance is a lethal dwarfism identifiable at birth.
