Artrogripose múltipla congênita compreende condições congênitas não progressivas caracterizadas por múltiplas contraturas articulares. O termo é atualmente usado em conexão com um grupo muito heterogêneo de transtornos que todos incluem múltiplas contraturas articulares congênitas. A principal causa da artrogripose é a acinesia fetal devido a anormalidades fetais (p.ex., anormalidades neurogênicas, musculares ou do tecido conjuntivo; limitações mecânicas ao movimento) ou transtornos maternos (p.ex., infecção, drogas, traumatismo, outras doenças maternas). Acinesia fetal generalizada também pode causar polidrâmnio, hipoplasia pulmonar, micrognatia, hipertelorismo ocular e cordão umbilical curto. A falta de movimento fetal faz com que tecido conjuntivo extra se desenvolva ao redor da articulação, limitando o movimento e agravando ainda mais a contratura articular. | |||

Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, comprises nonprogressive congenital conditions characterised by multiple joint contractures. The term is currently used in connection with a very heterogeneous group of disorders that all include multiple congenital joint contractures. The major cause of arthrogryposis is fetal akinesia due to fetal abnormalities (e.g. neurogenic, muscle, or connective tissue abnormalities; mechanical limitations to movement) or maternal disorders (e.g. infection, drugs, trauma, other maternal illnesses). Generalised fetal akinesia can also lead to polyhydramnios, pulmonary hypoplasia, micrognathia, ocular hypertelorism, and short umbilical cord. Lack of fetal movement causes extra connective tissue to develop around the joint, limiting movement and further aggravating the joint contracture. | |||
