From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A deformity, dysmorphism, or dysmorphic feature is a structural abnormality in the shape of a body part or organ compared to the normal shape of that part caused by mechanical forces.[1] Deformities can be classified or divide into congenital deformity, occurs during the development of the fetus within the uterus, before or during birth, and acquired deformity, caused by trauma, infections, degeneration (e.g. osteoarthritis), arthritis, metabolism and other systemic disorders (example: an increase or decrease of hormones).
