Key words: Achondroplasia, hypochondroplasia, whole genome re-sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, sanger sequencing Introduction Achondroplasia (ACH) is the most frequently encountered type of genetic dwarfism, with a woman who has been informed of the prenatal diagnosis of achondroplasia or asked to examine the newborn to help establish the diagnosis. With the frequent use of ultrasonography, many cases of achondroplasia are first identified prenatally (after 26 weeks of gestational age). Achondroplasia is due to a change, called a mutation, in the gene that codes for fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3), an important component of bone development.This leads to FGFR3 being activated resulting in restricted bone growth.
