Ectrodactyly/split hand feet malformation
Jindal, Geetanjali; Parmar, Veena R. & Gupta, Vipul Kumar.
Abstract
Split-hand/split-foot malformation is a rare limb malformation with median clefts of the hands and feet and aplasia/hypoplasia of the phalanges, metacarpals and metatarsals. When present as an isolated anomaly, it is usually inherited as an autosomal dominant form. We report a case of autosomal recessive inheritance and discuss the antenatal diagnosis, genetic counseling and treatment for the malformation.
Keywords
