A 35-year-old G5P2 was referred to our department at 38th week of pregnancy. Ultrasonography revealed a fetus with a large cranium with prominent forehead and depressed nasal bridge. His thorax was markedly narrow in comparison with the prominent abdomen. The limbs were very short with redundant subcutaneous fat. Femur and humerus were thick, short and bowed with a "telephone receiver" appearance. The ribs were short with flattened vertebral bodies. These are images that we obtained.
