Kirner

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Genetics
  • Pediatric Medicine

Background:

  • Kirner's deformity is a rare congenital condition affecting the distal phalanx, typically the little finger.
  • Characterized by volar and radial bowing, its exact cause remains unknown.

Observation:

  • A case study of a 9-year-old girl presented with radiographic findings consistent with Kirner's deformity.
  • However, the observed curvature and nail changes were in the dorsal direction, contrary to the usual presentation.

Findings:

  • This case presents an atypical dorsal presentation of Kirner's deformity.
  • Radiographic changes mimicked classic Kirner's deformity but exhibited reversed curvature.

Implications:

  • This atypical presentation expands the understanding of Kirner's deformity's spectrum.
