A dermatoglyphic analysis has been carried out in 7 boys and 5 girls affected by Noonan's syndrome. No deviation from the general population values was found with respect to individual quantitative value, A line termination, absence of C line, a-b ridge count, hypothenar patterns, and presence of p proximal triradius on soles.

Whorls were however increased on fingertips and the axial triradius t, as in Turner's syndrome, was in 21% of the cases in position t′ or t″.
