An abnormal condition characterized by abnormally small hands and feet, or general smallness of the extremities.
From Greek 'akron' (extremity) + 'mikros' (small). This medical term names a condition by describing the distinctive feature of unusually small extremities compared to the trunk.
Acromicria is basically the opposite of acromegaly—while one makes your extremities huge, the other makes them tiny, showing how the human body's growth can go wildly off-balance!
