Abstract This report describes a case of “dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica” with the first clinical manifestations at birth and increasing difference in the length of the lower extremities during infancy. The diagnosis was made at the age of 3 years when marked disability had already occurred. There was involvement of both legs and, to a lesser degree, the arms suggesting that this is a systemic disorder.
