Acromicric dysplasia is an extremely rare inherited disorder characterized by abnormally short hands and feet, growth retardation and delayed bone maturation leading to short stature, and mild facial abnormalities. Most cases have occurred randomly for no apparent reason (sporadically). However, autosomal dominant inheritance has not been ruled out.

According to the disease database Acromicric Dysplasia is snyonymous with Geleophysic dysplasia(or Geleophysic Dwarfism) and Focal mucopolysaccharidosis.
