Expression analysis of 13 candidate genes within and flanking the duplicated region shows that BTRC (present in three copies) and SUFU (present in two copies) are overexpressed in SHFM3 patients compared to controls. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Clinical presentation is with the absence of one or more median rays or digits creating cone-shaped clefts of the hands and/or feet. The present case of severe bilateral SHFM was presented in an 8-year-old girl in India. [joas.in]

Type IV 3 metatarsals are present. The second, third and/or fourth metatarsals are missing. Type V 2 metatarsals are present. The second, third and fourth metatarsals are missing. Type IV 1 metatarsal is present. [podiatrytoday.com]

  The array result was also confirmed by FISH analysis. The duplicated region harbors only DLX5 and DLX6, which are known for their role in SHFM1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Here we show, using two different techniques, FISH and quantitative PCR that SHFM3 is caused by a minimal 325 kb duplication containing only two genes (BTRC and POLL). [archive-ouverte.unige.ch]

  Ectrodactyly (SHFM or ECC) is a relatively rare (1/90,000 births) congenital genetic (long arm of chromosome7; 7q22 - Arg304 of p63 gene is most commonly seen defect) birth defect with limb malformation involving the central rays of the autopod and presenting [onlinehealthexpert.org]

  In adult life, on clinical examination, she had facial asymmetry, and a broad and a prominent nasal root (Fig. 1a). Oral examination indicated irregular placement of teeth and a high-arched palate (Fig. 1b). [journals.lww.com]

• Claw Hand Deformity

  /split-foot malformation (SHFM), also known as ectrodactyly or lobster claw hand deformity, is a rare congenital limb malformation characterized by a median cleft of hands and/or feet due to the absence of the central rays. [njps.org]

The diagnosis of LV requires a full workup including a detailed history and a thorough physical examination. Due to its myriad forms, a high index of suspicion is the key to making the diagnosis. [oatext.com]

Currently there are several treatments, which can normalize the appearance of the hands, yet they will not function precisely the same way as regularly formed hands. [onlinehealthexpert.org]

The prognosis for the non-syndromic Ectrodactyly is very good and that of the ECC syndrome depends on the organs involved and the penetrance level. Some people with ectrodactyly use prosthetic hands to avoid the rude stares of others. [onlinehealthexpert.org]
