Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: There have been 23 previously published cases of patients with syndromic craniosynostosis and human tails. In many of these, the tail was composed of prominent coccygeal and sacral vertebrae, curved in a retroverted instead of in the normal anterograde fashion. This has been termed sacrococcygeal eversion. In those cases in which genetic testing results are reported, there were fibroblast growth...
