Accordingly, the purpose of these diagrams is to present images of the common polydactyly, syndactyly and brachydactly malformations that have been described. [peds.ufl.edu]

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]

• Manic Behavior

  I looked and looked to see if there's some association between manic behavior or other kind of strange behavioral traits, and I have not been able to find anything. So he's just a man with small, small hands? Yes, exactly… small metacarpals. [esquire.com]

• Polyneuropathy

  Type A1 brachydactyly, short stature, hearing loss, microcephaly, mental retardation and ptosis Atypical facial clefting in a patient with Goltz syndrome Congenital aplasia of the extensor muscles of the fingers and thumb associated with generalized polyneuropathy [documents.mx]

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]

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 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]

Treatment For small but otherwise normal thumbs, no treatment is necessary. Greater degrees of under-development require surgical reconstruction. [dellchildrens.net]

[…] 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]

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]

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]
