apnea and Achondroplasia
apnea has been researched along with Achondroplasia in 12 studies
Apnea: A transient absence of spontaneous respiration.
Achondroplasia: An autosomal dominant disorder that is the most frequent form of short-limb dwarfism. Affected individuals exhibit short stature caused by rhizomelic shortening of the limbs, characteristic facies with frontal bossing and mid-face hypoplasia, exaggerated lumbar lordosis, limitation of elbow extension, GENU VARUM, and trident hand.
