There are several types of short-limbed neonatal dwarfism. Before the delineation of thanatophoric dwarfism many dwarfs who died early in infancy were labeled "achondroplastic." Intrauterine radiological diagnosis is possible and the clinician may be alerted to the possibility of the condition by noting short squat limbs with a relatively large head on ultrasound examination, especially in cases of hydramnios.
短肢新生儿侏儒症有几种类型。在致死性侏儒症被明确界定之前，许多在婴儿早期死亡的侏儒被诊断为“软骨发育不全”。子宫内放射学诊断是可行的，临床医生在超声检查中注意到四肢短粗且头部相对较大的情况时，可能会警觉到这种病症的可能性，尤其是在羊水过多的病例中。
