Acrocapitofemoral dysplasia (ACFD) is an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia characterized by postnatal-onset disproportionate short stature, relatively large head, narrow thorax, lumbar lordosis, short limbs, and brachydactyly with small broad nails (Ozyavuz Cubuk and Duz, 2021).

Brachydactyly type A1 (BDA1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by shortening of the middle phalanges of the digits of the hand, with or without symphalangism. Mild short stature is often present. Considerable inter- and intrafamilial variability has been observed, with all or only some digits affected, and complete absence of the middle phalanx in some cases. Metacarpals may also be shortened, and clinodactyly, camptodactyly, and ulnar deviation have been reported. Some patients exhibit abnormalities of the feet (Zhu et al., 2007; Lodder et al., 2008; Byrnes et al., 2009; Vasques et al., 2018). Genetic Heterogeneity of Brachydactyly Type A1 BDA1B (607004) has been mapped to chromosome 5. BDA1C (615072) is caused by mutation in the GDF5 gene (601146) on chromosome 20q11. BDA1D (616849) is caused by mutation in the BMPR1B gene (603248) on chromosome 4q22.

Any brachydactyly type A1 in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the BMPR1B gene.

Hoxha-Aliu syndrome (HXAL) is characterized by mildly impaired intellectual development and digital anomalies of the hands and feet (Hoxha and Aliu, 2023; Guo et al., 2023). Biallelic missense mutations in the ERI1 gene have been reported to cause a more severe bone disorder, spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, Guo-Campeau type (SEMDGC; 620663).
