Abstract
Acanthosis nigricans has been described in several autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia syndromes due to germline FGFR3 mutations, but rarely specifically in patients with hypochondroplasia. We report a child who presented with extensive acanthosis nigricans, short stature, and radiographic evidence of hypochondroplasia. Genetic analysis revealed a heterozygous K650Q mutation in FGFR3.Entities:
