Human Gene Set: HP_PROXIMAL_SYMPHALANGISM_OF_HANDS


Standard name HP_PROXIMAL_SYMPHALANGISM_OF_HANDS
Systematic name M48738
Brief description Proximal symphalangism of hands
Full description or abstract The term proximal symphalangism refers to a bony fusion of the middle and proximal phalanges of the digits of the hand, in other words the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIJ) is missing which can be seen either on x-rays or as an absence of the proximal interphalangeal finger creases.
