Schmid-type metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (MCDS) is characterized by short stature with short legs, bowing of the long bones, coxa vara, and waddling gait. MCDS is a relatively common form of MCD. Most mutations that cause MCDS occur within the carboxyl-terminal non-collagenous domain (NC1) of the COL10A1 gene. We performed mutational analysis of the COL10A1 genes in 4 unrelated Korean patients with diagnosed...
