We conducted a hybrid retrospective-prospective observational study in children with achondroplasia treated with vosoritide at a single tertiary center.
Prospectively patients were evaluated at baseline and after 12 and 24 months on treatment.
Thirty-five children (mean age 5.92 ± 3.56 years) were included.
