Thanatophoric dwarfism is a lethal congenital chondrodystrophy characterized by diminished
vertebral body height, a narrow thorax, and micromelia.
This report presents the clinical, radiographic and autopsy findings of an experienced case
of thanatophoric dwarfism detected prenatally by radiologic examination and discusses the
differentiation of this disorder from other forms of congenital short limbed dwarfism.
