At birth, affected infants have unusually increased body length that is abnormal in proportion to weight, which may also be above average; in addition, newborns typically demonstrate advanced bone growth, abnormally large hands and/or feet, and characteristic facial features. Abnormally rapid growth continues after birth until approximately four or five years of age, at which time growth may slow to a normal rate. Adult height usually exceeds the 50th percentile. Some affected individuals may reach excessive adult heights; males of 193 cm to 203 cm (6 feet 4 inches to 6 feet 8 inches) and females up to 188 cm (6 feet 2 inches) have been described.
