📋Overview
Dolichostenomelia is a descriptive term referring to abnormally long and slender limbs relative to the trunk. It is considered a physical feature rather than a standalone diagnosis. This trait is commonly seen in connective tissue disorders such as Marfan syndrome and other related genetic conditions. Modern clinical practice focuses on identifying the underlying disorder rather than the isolated feature of dolichostenomelia.
