Syndactyly type 1(SDTY1)

MedGen UID:
348343
Concept ID:
C1861380
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: CHROMOSOME 2q35 DUPLICATION SYNDROME; SYNDACTYLY, TYPE I; Zygodactyly
SNOMED CT: Syndactyly type 1 (715723008)
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance
MedGen UID:
141047
Concept ID:
C0443147
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

Definition

A distal limb malformation with manifestation of complete or partial webbing between the third and fourth fingers and/or the second and third toes. Other digits may be involved occasionally. The phenotype varies widely within and between families, sometimes only the hands are affected and sometimes only the feet. Webbing between fingers may be associated with bony fusion of the distal phalanges. Inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. [from SNOMEDCT_US]

Concept ID:
C1861921
Congenital Abnormality
A soft tissue continuity in the A/P axis between two digits that extends distally to at least the level of the proximal interphalangeal joints, or a soft tissue continuity in the A/P axis between two digits that lies significantly distal to the flexion crease that overlies the metacarpophalangeal or metatarsophalangeal joint of the adjacent digits.
2-3 toe syndactyly
MedGen UID:
1645640
Concept ID:

Congenital Abnormality
Syndactyly with fusion of toes two and three.
Sagittal craniosynostosis
MedGen UID:
140921
Concept ID:
C0432123
Congenital Abnormality

Distal symphalangism of hands
MedGen UID:
350607
Concept ID:
C1862158
Finding
The term distal symphalangism refers to a bony fusion of the distal and middle phalanges of the digits of the hand, in other words the distal interphalangeal joint (DIJ) is missing which can be seen either on x-rays or as an absence of the distal interphalangeal finger creases.
