  • Title: Ulnar dimelia variant: a case report.
    Author: Jameel J, Khan AQ, Ahmad S, Abbas M.
    Journal: J Orthop Traumatol; 2011 Sep; 12(3):163-5. PubMed ID: 21769660.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of ulnar dimelia, commonly called mirror hand, in a 2-month-old female child who had restriction of elbow flexion and forearm rotation. There was no facial or other internal organ malformation. Radiographs revealed seven triphalangeal digits with double ulnae (one following the other) and absent radius. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of this mirror hand deformity in which fingers are symmetrical while duplicated ulnae are not.
