Metatropic dysplasia in third trimester of pregnancy and a novel causative variant in the TRPV4 gene.

Prenatal diagnosis of skeletal dysplasias is particularly difficult for many reasons and differentiating these disorders in the prenatal period can be challenging because they are rare and many of the ultrasound findings are not necessarily pathognomonic for a specific disorder. The diagnosis is often made just after birth or exitus. The prenatal diagnosis of osteochondrodysplasias is based predominantly upon fetal ultrasound findings and it focuses substantially on the possible lethality of the disorder, without always being able to find a specific name for the disorder.
