Treatment of Hypochondroplasia

Treatment of Hypochondroplasia
The treatment of hypochondroplasia is directed toward the specific symptoms that are apparent in each individual. Such treatment may require the coordinated efforts of a team of medical professionals, such as pediatricians or internists; physicians who diagnose and treat disorders of the skeleton, joints, muscles, and related tissues (orthopedists); surgeons; physical therapists; and/or other health care professionals.

Various orthopedic techniques, including surgery, may be recommended to help treat or correct certain skeletal abnormalities associated with the disorder. For example, as noted above, although outward bowing of the legs tends to improve during later childhood, surgical straightening may be advised in some cases.

In women with hypochondroplasia who are pregnant, Cesarean section is often necessary for delivery.

Early intervention may be important to help ensure that affected children reach their potential. Special services that may be beneficial may include special education, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and/or other medical, social, or vocational services.

Genetic counseling will be of benefit for affected individuals and their families. Other treatment for this disorder is symptomatic and supportive.
