Malformations Complexes des Membres Supérieurs Associées à une Cardiopathie Congénitale. À propos de six observations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2014
Summary
The authors report on six patients exhibiting a congenital heart disease and malformations of the upper limbs. In two of them this association is similar to that described by Holt and Oram in 1960: atrial septal defect, heart arrythmia and abnormal thumbs. The other four patients have the same skeletal anomalies but different heart malformations. Dermatoglyphic studies revealed a high frequency of a distal position of the axial triradius and of an equivalent of a simian crease. The karyotypes are all normal. The etiology is discussed.
