Ellis van Creveld syndrome (EVCS) is mainly characterized by dysplatic changes in skeletal structures along with variable inter- and intra-familial patterns. Shortening of bony structures such as ribs and limbs, postaxial polydactyly, and dysplastic teeth and nails are among the clinical presentation of this autosomal recessive disease.
