2 Figure 1 Radiological Manifestations of Desbuquois Dysplasia
(A and B) Hand X-rays at 1 and 3 years of age. Note the advanced carpal ossification and the delta phalanx (arrow). (C) Hip at 3 years of age. Note the Swedish key appearance of the proximal femur. (D) Knee at 3 years of age. Note the metaphyseal irregularities.

5 Figure 4 Transmission Electron Microscopy in Fibroblasts from Three Desbuquois Dysplasia Patients (A–C) RER cisternae appeared markedly dilated in the vast majority of cells, in which there was an accumulation of slightly electron-dense, fibrillar, or finely granular proteinaceous material (arrows). Interestingly, there is no evidence of ribosome detachment, commonly observed in severe oxidative stress. (D) Cultured fibroblasts from healthy individuals failed to display significant enlargement of RER (arrowhead). (staining was with uranyl acetate and lead citrate; original magnification ×15,000).
