ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019) |
The symphalangism or Symphangie (from ancient Greek σύν syn , together 'and φάλαγξ phalanx , Row') is a rare malformation with congenital or acquired fusion of two adjacent phalanges .
In contrast to syndactyly , in which the separation between two fingers or toes is missing or incomplete, in symphalangia there is a bony fusion of two phalanges of a finger or a toe, with the lack of the affected proximal or distal finger or toe joint .
The first description comes from the year 1900 by Harvey Cushing .
distribution
A symphalangia is most often found as an anatomical variant ( standard variant ) on the little toe as a fusion of the middle and end phalanx. The occurrence is given here with 40 - 70% of the population.
Often additional malformations such as shorter metatarsal or metacarpal bones or carpal or tarsal coalition are found.
There is an association with:
- Apert syndrome
- Brachydactyly in various forms
- Diastrophic dysplasia
- Poland Syndrome
Classification
The following diseases can be found for "symphalangism" in the Orphanet or OMIM databases :
- Sillence syndrome , synonym: symphalangism-brachydactyly syndrome
- Learman syndrome , synonym: symphalangism with multiple anomalies of the hands and feet
- Distal symphalangism , synonym: SYM2
-
Proximal symphalangism , synonym: Cushing symphalangia; Cushing-type proximal symphalangia
- Proximal symphalangism type 1A , synonyms: Strasburger-Hawkins-Eldridge syndrome; Strasburger-Hawkins-Eldridge Hargrave-McKusick syndrome; Symphalangia stapes fixation syndrome; Vesell syndrome
- Proximal symphalangism type 1B
- Multiple synostosis syndrome , synonym symphalangia - brachydactyly . This term can be used to summarize Sillence's syndrome, proximal symphalangism types 1A and 1B
There is also the
- Brachydactyly type B , synonym: symphalangism and hypophalangia; apical dystrophy; Brachydactyly with joint aplasia
Clinical manifestations
Clinical criteria are:
- Joint stiffness, restricted mobility, missing skin folds over the joint aplasia
Often it is an incidental finding in the X-ray
Depending on the extent of the fusion, a distinction can be made between fibrous , cartilaginous and bony symphalangia.
