Abstract

Although Achondroplasia (ACH) may not be considered a condition strictly related to neuropsychiatric problems, many children referred to paediatric neurologists and psychiatrists to undergo motor and linguistic diagnostic-rehab procedures. The purpose of this study was to delineate a characterization of language difficulties in a sample of Italian children with Achondroplasia and analyze how an untreated language disorder can develop into a learning disability.
