What is Dwarfism: Types, Causes, and Management about?
Dwarfism is a medical condition defined by short stature, resulting from abnormal bone or cartilage growth, with various types including disproportionate and proportionate dwarfism. Achondroplasia is the most common type, accounting for about 70% of cases, caused by a mutation in the FGFR3 gene. Management includes growth hormone therapy, surgical corrections, and supportive therapies to improve quality of life and health outcomes.
