T E Herman1, M J Siegel, W H McAlister.

A marked thoracic deformity associated with intrathoracic tracheal narrowing was seen in a 17-year-old with achondroplasia and dyspnea. The role of chest deformity and its evaluation by CT and MRI in achondroplastic patients with respiratory symptoms are considered.
