Sindrome di Larsen   OMIM 150250



E' una malattia genetica rara caratterizzata da lussazione congenita poliarticolare tra cui il Congenital Genu Recurvatum (bilaterale), piede torto, mano torta e caratteristica facies caratterizzata da ipertelorismo, radice del naso depressa, bozza frontale prominente, micrognazia e palatoschisi. 
E' dovuta a mutazioni o delezioni del gene FLNB sul cromosoma 3p14.3, trasmessa con carattere autosomico dominante  o con carattere recessivo
