"Post-natal clinical findings include a narrow chest and shortened extremities with a coccygeal tail seen in some cases. Joint contractures and kyphoscoliosis can manifest within the first year of life. As the kyphoscoliosis worsens with time, eventually patients can have a comparably short appearing torso when compared to the limbs, despite associated limb shortening."
