Achondroplasia is a hereditary, congenital form of skeletal dysplasia, commonly known as dwarfism. Over 50,000 people in the U.S. are afflicted with one of the 251 types of dwarfism-more than those suffering from either sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis or hemophilia. One in every 15,000 babies is born with dwarfism, most to parents of average stature.
