Hastings describes a living child born without any traces of arms or legs.

Garlick has seen a child with neither upper nor lower extremities.

In place of them were short stumps three or four inches long, closely resembling the ordinary stumps after amputation.

The head, chest, body, and male genitals were well formed, and the child survived.

Hutchinson reports the history of a child born without extremities, probably the result of intrauterine amputation.
