Figure 5.
Radiographs of the probands with EDMMD and Kniest dysplasia. A-D: X-rays of pelvis (A), spine (B and C) and hands (D) of the proband in Family 9 with EDMMD. Osteoarthritis, coxa vara, shortening femoral necks and sclerosis of acetabulums were obvious in pelvis. Biconcave deformity, rough edges of vertebral body and narrow intervertebral disc spaces were significant in spine. Narrowing of the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joint spaces and expansion of metaphyses were showed in hands and long tubular bones. E-G: Radiographs of pelvis (E) and spine (F and G) of the proband in Family 10 with Kniest dysplasia. Irregular shapes of femur heads, narrow joint space of bilateral hips, flat acetabular roof, coxa vara, severe multiple platyspondyly and slight scoliosis were showed.
