Entire Body System
- Weakness
Myotubular myopathy, also known as centronuclear myopathy, is a slowly progressive disease that causes drooping of the eyelids, foot drop, facial weakness, and other muscle weakness. It is evident at birth to infancy and is rarely fatal. [healthcommunities.com]

Gastrointestinal
- Nausea
Thalidomide, an anti- nausea medicine prescribed during the 1960s, caused birth defects called phocomelia (absence of most of the arm with the hands extending flipper-like from the shoulders). [my.clevelandclinic.org]
Cow’s milk intolerance can also cause a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and failure to gain weight and grow at the expected rate (failure to thrive). [rarediseases.org]

Musculoskeletal
- Hand Deformity
Hand and Arm Surgery Orthopedics What are congenital hand deformities? Congenital anomalies are deformities that are present at birth. Any type of deformity in a newborn can become a challenge for the child as he or she grows. [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Late complications can include: Scarring Contracture, which may require surgery Congenital hand deformities Amniotic band syndrome Arthrogryposis Hypoplastic thumb: a hypoplastic thumb is usually smaller or weaker than an average thumb. [choa.org]
Roswell Park described a case of congenital absence of radius with a club hand deformity for which operative procedure was done with acceptable results [ 9 ]. [casereports.in]
SPILT HAND AND FOOT SYNDROME The term ‘split hand and foot’ syndrome refers to a group of disorders characterized by splitting of the hand and foot into two parts; other terms include lobster-claw deformity and ectrodactyly. [sonoworld.com]
- Muscle Weakness
Myotubular myopathy, also known as centronuclear myopathy, is a slowly progressive disease that causes drooping of the eyelids, foot drop, facial weakness, and other muscle weakness. It is evident at birth to infancy and is rarely fatal. [healthcommunities.com]
Individuals with Down syndrome have mental retardation, muscle weakness, downward slant of the eyes, low-set and malformed ears, an abnormal crease in the palm of the hand, and birth defects of the heart and intestines. [my.clevelandclinic.org]
Treatment
Treatment For small but otherwise normal thumbs, no treatment is necessary. Greater degrees of under-development require surgical reconstruction. [dellchildrens.net]
Babies with birth defects often need special care and treatments. The treatments may include surgery, medicines, assistive devices, and therapies. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Intersex (Medical Encyclopedia) [ Read More ] [icdlist.com]
Knowledge of these aspects provides useful guidelines for a prompt diagnosis, choosing the most appropriate surgical procedure for treatment. [link.springer.com]
Surgical treatment is not always required to correct these deformities. [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Depending of the type of anomaly, treatment will be recommended by the hand surgeon, the treatment may be surgical and non-surgical depending on each individual case. [columbiadoctors.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis of Congenital Radioulnar Synostosis Overall, surgical treatment has high failure rates. [boneandspine.com]
Prognosis A congenital limb deficiency has a profound effect on the life of the child and his or her parents. [healthofchildren.com]
Despite several treatment modalities, late presentation, local beliefs, the paucity of equipment, and cost of treatment may equally limit the choice of intervention and render poor prognosis. 2. [file.scirp.org]
The patient's general and mental capacity and its prognosis must be assessed. A child with limited mental capacity still needs hand function, bimanual if possible, but the aims might be more limited. [adc.bmj.com]
Prognosis A congenital limb deficiency has a profound effect on the life of the child and parents. However, occupational therapy can help the child learn to accomplish many tasks. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
Etiology
Other congenital anomalies or a familial history of similar anomalies help confirm this as an etiology. [clinicalgate.com]
Manifestation code identifies conditions for which it is important to record both the etiology and the symptom of the disease. [books.google.com]
Extremity Deficiencies Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency Etiology: Proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD) refers to abnormalities that range from mild shortening and hypoplasia of the femur to severe deficiency of the bone and dysplasia of the acetabulum [radiologykey.com]
With transverse or longitudinal deficiency, depending on the etiology, infants may also have hypoplastic or bifid bones, synostoses, duplications, dislocations, or other bony defects; for example, in proximal femoral focal deficiency, the proximal femur [merckmanuals.com]

Prevention There is no known way to prevent congenital amputations, but the prevention of birth defects in general begins with the well being of the mother before and during pregnancy. [healthofchildren.com]
Prevention of skeletal limb abnormalities There is no certain way to prevent skeletal limb abnormalities from occurring. Instead, the focus is on early detection and treatment. [healthline.com]
Prevention Studies have suggested that a multivitamin including folic acid may reduce birth defects, including congenital abnormalities. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
