Acromesomelic chondrodysplasia with or without genital anomalies is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations of the BMPR1B gene. The disorder is characterized by severe dwarfism, hypomelia, and deformation of both limbs, and various other bone anomalies can be present. Genital malformations are reported in females.
