In addition, osteochondroma was found in several members of a family with camptodactyly, tall stature, and hearing loss syndrome, a rare inherited disorder caused by a heterozygous missense mutation in Fgfr3. In this study, we found that Fgfr3 deficiency leads to the formation of cartilaginous tumors, including osteochondromas and enchondromas, likely due to dysregulated endochondral ossification in growth plates. Here, FGFR3 is linked to chondrogenic neoplasm.
