Deformed


Definition:

  • (imp. & p. p.) of Deform
  • (a.) Unnatural or distorted in form; having a deformity; misshapen; disfigured; as, a deformed person; a deformed head.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Gross deformity, point tenderness and decrease in supination and pronation movements of the forearm were the best predictors of bony injury.
