ACHONDRODISPLASIA
Defect of FGFR 3
Dwarfism, associated with advanced paternal age
APKD(adult polycystic kidney disease)
90% due to mutation in APKD 1 (chromosome 16)

Associated with polycystic liver disease, berry aneurysm, mitral valve prolapse.
Familial adenomatous polyposis
Deletion on chromosome 5
(APC gene)
Colon becomes---adenomatous polyps after puberty.
