    Summary

    Poland anomalad affects dermatoglyphic patterns, even on unaffected hands. This study analyzed seven patients, revealing unique fingerprint configurations in affected and contralateral limbs.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical genetics
    • Dermatoglyphics
    • Congenital anomalies

    Background:

    • Poland anomalad is a rare congenital condition characterized by chest wall and upper limb abnormalities.
    • Dermatoglyphics, the study of fingerprints, can offer insights into developmental processes and genetic predispositions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the dermatoglyphic patterns in patients diagnosed with Poland anomalad.
    • To explore potential correlations between the severity of limb defect and specific dermatoglyphic features.

    Main Methods:

    • A dermatoglyphic analysis was conducted on seven patients with Poland anomalad.
    • Comparison of dermatoglyphic patterns between the affected (ipsilateral) and unaffected (contralateral) hands.

    Main Results:

    • Significant variability in dermatoglyphic patterns was observed on the ipsilateral (affected) hand.
    • Typical patterns were noted in synbrachydactylic hands, while brachydactyly alone presented peculiar configurations.
    • Rare dermatoglyphic types were identified even on the contralateral (unaffected) hand, suggesting systemic effects.

    Conclusions:

    • Dermatoglyphic analysis reveals distinct and often rare patterns in Poland anomalad patients.
    • These findings highlight the utility of dermatoglyphics in understanding the complex manifestations of Poland anomalad, including subtle changes in seemingly unaffected limbs.
