1) Amelia, meromelia and micromelia
These anomalies of the limb are rare and mainly hereditary due to chromo­somal abnormalities. However, as al­ready discussed, thalidomide has been proved to be a teratogenic drug that causes gross limb deformities.
Amelia means absence of one or more of the limbs (in Greek melos = limb).
Meromelia is an anomaly in which parts of one or more limbs are missing. Sometimes the proximal seg­ment of a limb is normal but the distal portion is missing; such condition is known as hemimelia. In another condi­tion, called phocomelia, the proximal segments of the limbs are missing and the hands and feet are attached di­rectly to the trunk like the flippers of a [ seal (in Greek phoke = seal)
Micromelia is an anomaly in which all segments of the limbs are present but much shorter than normal.
