Radiographs of a two-year-old female patient diagnosed with Hurler syndrome (MPS IH) (a-c). a) Flaring iliac wings with distal tapering; capital femoral epiphyses are not dysplastic. b) Hypoplastic L2 vertebral body with dorsal gibbus maximized at this point; inferior beaking (hook shape) throughout the lumbar vertebral bodies; posterior scalloping of the vertebral bodies in the lumbar spine. c) Short metacarpals with tapering and converging of proximal ends; diaphyseal widening through the metacarpals and phalanges; distal radius and ulnar are inclined on their planes towards each other.
