Will Brachydactyly Type E Affecting Hands And Feet Also Affect Other Bones?
Hi my 11 year old daughter has just been diagnosed with brachydactyly type E. She has short bones in her hands and feet which have stopped growing. Will it affect other bones in her body? And she still has all but 5 of her milk teeth - is there any relation here? Thanks,Ruby
