Ulna hypoplasia-intellectual disability syndrome is a very rare genetic disorder which is characterized by shortening of the arms associated with ulnar aplasia/hypoplasia, bilateral clubbed feet, widespread nail aplasia/hypoplasia, and severe psychomotor delays with intellectual disabilities.[1][2][3] It has only been described in two siblings born to consanguineous Arab parents. It is thought to be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.[4][5]
