✦ Synopsis

The neurologic manifestations of the skeletal dysplasias are reviewed. Three important major groups are identified: Achondroplasia (cranio-cervical junction problems in infancy, spinal stenosis and neurogenic claudication in the adult). Type II collagenopathies (upper cervical spine anatomic and functional problems), and craniotubular and sclerosing bone dysplasias (osseous overgrowth with foraminal obstruction problems). The remainder of the wellidentified 150 or so bone dysplasias are also evaluated in depth for their diverse neurologic abnormalities. The findings discussed are important both for the diagnosis and management of these patients. Am.

## Abstract Erlenmeyer flask bone deformity (EFD) is a long‐standing term used to describe a specific abnormality of the distal femora. The deformity consists of lack of modeling of the di‐metaphysis with abnormal cortical thinning and lack of the concave di‐metaphyseal curve resulting in an Erlenm

Sonographic assessment of the skeleton is a routine part of fetal anomaly scanning. We report a series of 35 cases seen during a 7-year interval in which a skeletal dysplasia was suspected prenatally. In seven (20 per cent) of the 35 cases, a specific diagnosis could not be made either pre-or postna
