Abstract：
Terminal transverse deficiency of forearm is a very rare limb malformation. Most of the cases have traumatic etiology and congenital presentation is less common. A series of six individuals with transverse deficiency through the hands is presented in this communication. The cases were congenital, morphologically similar and showed loss of four fingers, most often postaxial. The affected arm was reduced in size compared to the contralateral limb and there was distortion of palmer creases. All cases were sporadic and non-syndromic in nature. The characteristics of these cases were concordant with the symbrachydactyly type III or monodactylous type, when classified according to the scheme proposed by Blauth and Gekeler (1973). The malformation resulted in permanent quality-of-life impairment in these subjects and warrant prosthetic management. Detailed physical and phenotypic features of the patients have been presented.
摘要：
前臂末端横向缺损是一种非常罕见的肢体畸形。大多数病例具有创伤性病因，先天性表现较少见。在此通讯中介绍了一系列六个通过手横向缺乏的个体。这些病例是先天性的，形态相似，并显示四个手指的损失，最常见的是后轴。与对侧肢体相比，受影响的手臂尺寸减小，并且掌纹折痕变形。所有病例均为散发性和非综合征性。这些病例的特征与III型或单指型一致，根据Blauth和Gekeler(1973)提出的方案进行分类。畸形导致这些受试者的永久性生活质量受损，需要进行假肢管理。已介绍了患者的详细身体和表型特征。
