AP radiograph of the thoracolumbar spine (left) shows ribs that are widened but then taper at their vertebral insertions (oar-shaped ribs). Lateral radiograph of the thoracolumbar spine (right) shows the vertebral bodies to be hypoplastic and oval in appearance and to be beaked anteriorly, resulting in a gibbus deformity at the thoracolumbar junction. Overall there is diffuse platyspondyly of the spine.
