-
A hand-foot malformation with characteristics of triphalangeal thumbs and pre and postaxial polydactyly, isolated syndactyly or complex polysyndactyly. It has been described in some large pedigrees. Clinical presentation is variable within families, ranging from mild to severe. Malformations of the feet are usually less severe than those of the hands. Caused by duplication encompassing the limb-specific regulatory element (ZRS) of sonic hedgehog SHH, which lies in intron 5 of the limb region 1 homolog gene, LMBR1 (7q36). This syndrome is transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner with complete penetrance and variable expression.
-
A very rare variant of acrofacial dysostosis with characteristics of mandibulofacial dysostosis and limb anomalies. It has been described in less than ten patients. The mandibulofacial dysostosis consists of retrognathism, complete or occult posterior cleft palate and anomalies of the external ears. Limb anomalies consist of split-foot deformity with syndactyly of some toes. The condition is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with variable penetrance and expressivity.
-
Features the presence of a usually opposable triphalangeal thumb with or without additional duplication of one or more skeletal components of the thumb. The thumb appearance can differ widely in shape (wedge to rectangular) or it can be deviated in the radio-ulnar plane. Also associated with systemic syndromes including Holt-Oram syndrome.
