A thoracic dystrophy syndrome, characterized mainly by abnormalities involving the chest, larynx and pelvis. It is characterized by thoracic dystrophy (mall and rigid bell-shaped thorax with small chest volume), laryngeal stenosis, normal stature with variable asymmetry, asthenic build, and small pelvis. The small chest cavity affects breathing and can affect survival, especially during infancy. Inhritance is autosomal dominant.
Barnes’ syndrome has many features in common with Jeune’s syndrome. This will be entered later under Mathis Jeune, French pediatrician, 1910-1983.
