Bilateral toe syndactyly – short review based on a case report [PDF]
Non-syndromic toe syndactyly is a regular cause of foot malformation in children, bilateral form being less common. Syndactyly release procedures had few contraindications, as uncomplicated malformation or important patient comorbidities.

Epithelial Migration and Non-adhesive Periderm Are Required for Digit Separation during Mammalian Development. [PDF]
The fusion of digits or toes, syndactyly, can be part of complex syndromes, including van der Woude syndrome. A subset of van der Woude cases is caused by dominant-negative mutations in the epithelial transcription factor Grainyhead like-3 (GRHL3), and ...

Background Polydactyly and syndactyly are congenital limb deformities, segregating in an autosomal‐dominant fashion. The variants in the GLI3 gene are closely related to congenital limb malformations.

Predictive Factors of Keloid Formation in Congenital Foot Syndactyly
Background:. Keloid formation after syndactyly division is a stressful situation for patients. In our experience, digital enlargement may be involved in keloid formation following syndactyly divisions.

Genetic determinants of syndactyly: perspectives on pathogenesis and diagnosis
The formation of the digits is a tightly regulated process. During embryogenesis, disturbance of genetic pathways in limb development could result in syndactyly; a common congenital malformation consisting of webbing in adjacent digits.

Molecular Landscape in Limb Anomalies: Diagnostic Yield and New Candidate Genes. [PDF]
In 132 individuals with limb anomalies, diagnostic yield was 36% (47/132), including 25 novel variants, three cases with new phenotypes, and two candidate loci, HOXA11 and a small 2q31.1 deletion. Mouse data and exome‐wide analysis, key in identifying the candidate loci, represent an important opportunity for gene discovery.

Syndactyly genes and classification: a mini review
Syndactyly (Syn = together; Dactylos = digits) is the most common limb defect mostly characterized by webbing of digits. It may be webbing with or without bony fusion and inherited mostly in autosomal dominant manner, although also reported as autosomal ...
