Method by which deficiencies at birth of the upper and lower limbs can be uniformly described and reported.

This part of ISO8548 establishes a method for describing deficiencies of the upper and lower limbs present at birth.

It describes only those bone deficiencies that are due to a failure of formation of parts, and it does so on anatomical and radiological bases. No attempt has been made to attribute any etiological or epidemiological factors.
