  • Title: [Dermatoglyphics of deformed hands].
    Author: Wolff-Quenot MJ, Clavert JM.
    Journal: Chir Pediatr; 1983; 24(3):205-9. PubMed ID: 6313245.
    Abstract:
    Palmar and finger prints are recovered in children with congenital malformed hands. The skin ridges of various hand abnormalities are compared with normal dermatoglyphics. We have found a relationship between the embryogenesis of the hand and the epidermal ridge arrangement. Dermatoglyphics are a clinically useful information for the diagnosis of amniotic disease or agenesis and for the chronology of the congenital malformation of limbs.
