Pathways to enhancing prenatal diagnosis of skeletal dysplasias

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Skeletal dysplasias are a group of Mendelian disorders that variably alter the development of the musculoskeletal system and phenotypically range from mild short stature syndromes to severe perinatal or neonatal morbidity. Prenatal diagnosis of these conditions can be challenging due to the lack of precision with ultrasound imaging compared to
