days of life. Infants with mild to moderate pulmonary<br />

insufficiency may survive neonatal period<br />

but may succumb to ongoing pulmonary<br />

morbidity later in life. There are some recent<br />

reports of survival with aggressive perinatal<br />

management in infants previously considered<br />

to have a lethal skeletal dysplasia such as<br />

thanatophoric dysplasia. 14 These infants frequently<br />

have severe growth retardation and<br />

chronic respiratory insufficiency and some have<br />

mental retardation either secondary to underlying<br />

central nervous system anomalies or as a<br />

result of chronic respiratory insufficiency. 14 Infants<br />

with nonlethal skeletal dysplasias such as
