Catel-Manzke syndrome, a rare condition, involves Pierre Robin syndrome and hyperphalangia of the index fingers. Early surgical correction around ages 2-3 is recommended for progressive deformities to improve function.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Developmental Biology

Background:

  • Catel-Manzke syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by Pierre Robin sequence and bilateral symmetric hyperphalangia of the index fingers.
  • The hallmark digital anomaly is the synostosis of the index finger, leading to radial deviation and potential functional impairment.

Observation:

  • Two pediatric cases of Catel-Manzke syndrome are presented, highlighting the clinical presentation and progression of the index finger deformity.
  • The radial deviation is noted to be progressive, leading to significant functional limitations in affected individuals.

Findings:

  • A specific, anomalous bone is identified as the cause of the connate radial deviation in the index fingers.
  • The study details the surgical technique employed for correcting this deformity.

Implications:

  • Early surgical intervention, ideally between 2 and 3 years of age, is advised to mitigate functional impairment.
  • The presented surgical approach demonstrates successful treatment outcomes for Catel-Manzke syndrome, improving hand function.
