英国惊现"拇指姑娘" 2岁身高仅65cm

ing-bottom: 160%;">

Abbie, born 22 months ago, has barely grown to the size of a six - month - old baby, with the height of 65cm.

英国一名近两岁的女孩艾比身高却仅有65cm，相当于6个月的婴儿般大小。

She suffers from a very rare genetic condition called Russell-Silver syndrome, a form of primordial dwarfism which affects only one in 100,000 babies.

艾比得了一种非常罕见的先天性不对称身材矮小性发育异综合征，又称原始侏儒症，发病率只有十万分之一。

Unlike her body, her head has grown at a normal rate so is slightly bigger than the rest of her. 'She never really crawled, but would scoot around with her head on the floor, bottom stuck up in the air,' says her mother Emma.

虽然身体发育缓慢，但艾比的头却发育正常，与其娇小的身躯相比，头部难免显得偏大。艾比的妈妈艾玛说：“由于头部较重，艾比几乎很少像其他婴儿那样爬行，经常会用头顶着地面，屁股翘起来移动”。
