| A rare congenital limb malformation characterized by short middle phalanges of the 2nd and 5th fingers and absence of the middle phalanges of toes 2 to 5. Occasionally, the 4th digit may be affected and manifests with an abnormally shaped middle phalanx which causes radial deviation of the distal phalanx. Other hand/foot malformations, such as syndactyly, polydactyly, reduction defects and symphalangism, may be associated. |
