Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is a syndrome with a wide range of manifestations including short stature, obesity, rounded face, subcutaneous ossifications and characteristic shortening and widening of long bones in the hands and feet (brachydactyly mostly affecting the 4th and 5th rays). These somatic features are associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a or 1c and to pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism.
