Weyers acrofacial dysostosis (WAD), also known as Curry-Hall syndrome, is an autosomal dominant condition with dental anomalies, nail dystrophy, postaxial polydactyly, and mild short stature. It is caused by mutations in EVC1 or EVC2 genes. Both EVC1 and EVC2 localize to the basal bodies of primary cilia and play a role in hedgehog signaling.

Autosomal dominant postaxial polydactyly, nail dystrophy, and dental abnormalities map to chromosome 4p16, in the region containing the Ellis-van Creveld syndrome locus.
