Lobster Claw Syndrome is a type of syndactyly, where abnormalities in the hand-foot region as well as the orodental region occur. A case of a 14-year old boy with this syndrome is presented here.
Distal limb deformities are congenital malformations with phenotypic variability, genetic heterogeneity and complex inheritance. Among these, split-hand/foot malformation is an ectrodactyly with missing central fingers, yielding a lobster claw-like hand, which when combined with long-bone deficiency
THE EEC SYNDROME IS A GENETIC ANOMALY CHARACTERIZED BY THE TRIAD: ectodermal dysplasia (development of anomalies of the structures derived from the embryonic ectodermal layer), ectrodactyly (extremities, hands and feet malformations) and cleft lip and/or palate; these malformations can be seen
Focal dermal hypoplasia (Goltz syndrome) is a rare genetic multisystem disorder primarily involving the skin, skeletal system, eyes, and face. We report the case of an eight-month-old female child who presented with multiple hypopigmented atrophic macules along the lines of blaschko, skeletal
Focal dermal hypoplasia or Goltz syndrome is a rare genodermatosis, characterized by multiple abnormalities of ectodermal and mesodermal origin. It is found predominantly in females and is characterized by hypoplasia of skin and papillomas. Three cases of focal dermal hypoplasia in infancy with
Ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia and clefting syndrome or "Lobster claw" deformity is a rare congenital anomaly that affects tissues of ectodermal and mesodermal origin. Nasolacrimal duct (NLD) obstruction with or without atresia of lacrimal passage is a common finding of such a syndrome. The
Focal dermal hypoplasia (Goltz syndrome) is a rare congenital dysplasia of the mesoectodermal derived tissues. It is an X-linked inheritance syndrome caused by mutations in the PORCNgene mapped on Xp11.23. The condition is characterized by cutaneous lesions distributed in linear areas associated
BACKGROUND
Goltz syndrome or focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) is an uncommon multisystem disorder. Herein, we report a typical case of FDH with unilateral ocular, cutaneous and skeletal features.
METHODS
a 4-year-old girl presented with microphthalmos and iris coloboma of the left eye, facial
Ectrodactyly also known as Split hand/foot malformation is a rare limb malformation with autosomal dominant in heritance with variable penetrance, commonly known as "lobster claw hand". Usually it involves midline clefts of the hands and feet with syndactyly. We report a neonate with ectrodactyly
We report the prenatal diagnosis at 16 weeks' gestation of bilateral split-hand/split-foot malformation (SHSFM) with severe lobster claw deformity of hands and feet in a male fetus without associated malformations. A minor manifestation of SHSFM was present in the father with only mild bilateral
Two patients with triphalangeal thumbs-ectrodactyly syndrome are described. The first case is a 4-year-old female with triphalangeal thumbs, preaxial polydactyly with rudimentary polydactyly of the 3rd finger of the right hand and ectro-syndactyly of feet. Her stillborn sister had triphalangeal
A Pakistani kindred comprising seven generations and 36 members with the split-hand/split-foot anomaly is described. The full expression of the trait, monodactylous or split hand and split foot, mainly of the lobster-claw type, was present in 33 males and 3 females. Other females showed a distinctly
Split-hand/split-foot malformation (SHFM) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder, with five known loci, that causes a lack of median digital rays, syndactyly, and aplasia or hypoplasia of the phalanges, metacarpals, and metatarsals. In the only known SHFM2 family, affected males and homozygous
