Brachyolmia (BCYM) is a heterogeneous group of skeletal dysplasias that primarily affects the spine. To date, four types of brachyolmia are known. Mutations in the TRPV4, a calcium-permeable nonselective cation channel, have been identified in an autosomal dominant form of brachyolmia (BCYM3). And it has been reported that PAPSS2 mutations cause autosomal recessive brachyolmia (BCRM4).
