10 Sub-sections are presented below, each section covers a different aspect involving the meaning of finger lengths. The continuation of this page presents a quick summary for each section. [handresearch.com]
Although rudimentary proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint is present, clinically this joint is stiff. In ring, long, and index fingers, no PIP joint is present, and symphalangism is present between middle and proximal phalanges. [emedicine.medscape.com]
This surgery is carried out when the affected hand has metacarpals of a reasonable length present. The thumb may not be normal, but will need to be present. [gosh.nhs.uk]

It consists of short fingers (brachy-), which can be linked together (syn-of syndactyly). The severity varies widely: from short fingers, which may be attached (syndactyly) to the total absence of the fingers (Figure 10 and 11). Figure 10. [cirugiamanoinfantil.com]
I have short fingers and a normal thumb. Living with this condition hasn't slowed me down at all. [healdove.com]
The type of brachydactyly obviously matters as some types will cause finger deviation, some an isolated shortness of the digits and some a combination. [congenitalhand.wustl.edu]

Abstract Asymptomatic symmetrical hyperphalangism of the fingers accompanied by foot anomalies is very rare. We present a 21-year-old man with anomalies in both hands and feet. [unboundmedicine.com]

Brachydactyly is typically an inherited condition. If you have a family member with brachydactyly, your risk for also having it is much higher. If your child is born with Down syndrome, their risk for brachydactyly is higher. [healthline.com]

Workup
In the case of our patient, no further workup was considered. Her brachydactyly was categorized as type E in Bell’s classification system. [consultant360.com]
Treatment
Make informed clinical choices for each patient, from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications, with new evidence-based criteria throughout. [books.google.com]
Treatment For small but otherwise normal thumbs, no treatment is necessary. Greater degrees of under-development require surgical reconstruction. [dellchildrens.net]

Treatment depends on the degree of absence of the fingers. Children with a competent thumb, and the presence of any finger, generally do not require treatment because they develop a hand pinch with time. [cirugiamanoinfantil.com]

Prognosis greatly depends on: • The extent of the disease. • The response to therapy. • Age and overall health of the child. • Your child's tolerance of specific procedures or therapies. • New developments in treatment. [texaschildrens.org]
Prognosis Isolated BD generally has an excellent prognosis. When BD is associated with other health problems or is part of another condition, the overall prognosis depends upon the nature of the associated condition. [encyclopedia.com]
[…] brachydactyly usually is transmitted in an autosomal dominant pattern, with variable penetrance. 3 The literature is scarce on the incidence of concomitant brachymetacarpia and brachymetatarsia. 4 Mild brachydactyly often is insignificant in terms of functional prognosis [consultant360.com]
Etiology
Hand Malformations Hand and finger malformations represent a challenging area of clinical genetics from the standpoint of understanding the classification as well as in understanding the genetic etiologies, which are often due to single gene mutations [peds.ufl.edu]

There is no known way that the mother can cause her child to have symbrachydactyly, and no way she can prevent it. Symbrachydactyly is not genetic, so it does not run in families. I know that no one else in my family has it. [healdove.com]
