Purpose

To define the orthopaedic problems associated with pseudoachondroplasia (PSACH) and their functional impact.

Methods

We reviewed the medical records of 12 consecutive patients presenting to our unit. Radiographic analysis of deformity included assessment of mechanical axis and dysplasia at hip, knee and ankle measured by acetabular index (AI), Reimer's migration percentage (MP), neck-shaft angle, distal lateral femoral (aDFLA) and proximal (mMPTA) and distal tibial angles.

The paediatric/adolescent PODCI questionnaires and the SF36 were used to assess quality of life issues.
