Congenital Contractural Arachnodactyly
Five cases of congenital contractural arachnodactyly (CCA) are reported. Three belong to the one family. CCA has often been mistaken for Marfan's disease and arthrogrypois multiplex. Because CCA has a more favourable prognosis, it is very important to be able to recognize this syndrome.

Congenital contractural arachnodactyly
Congenital Contractural Arachnodactyly (CCA) has emerged as a separate entity from Marfan's syndrome (Beals & Hecht, 1971, Hecht & Beals, 1972, Macleod & Clarke Fraser, 1973).

Prenatal Diagnosis in Congenital Contractural Arachnodactyly
Congenital contractural arachnodactyly (CCA) is a heritable connective tissue disorder caused by defects in the gene encoding fibrillin-2 (FBN2). People with CCA typically have a marfanoid habitus, flexion contractures, severe kyphoscoliosis, abnormal pinnae, and muscular hypoplasia. Because of the relative infrequency of the syndrome and its generally
