Ogino T, Satake H, Takahara M, Kikuchi N, Watanabe T, Iba K, Ishii S: Aberrant muscle syndrome -Hypertrophy of the hand and arm due to aberrant muscles with or without hypertrophy of the muscles-. Congenit Anom. 2010 Mar 1.
Abstract Five patients, six hands of muscular hyperplasia, aberrant muscles, ulnar drift of the fingers in the MP joints, flexion contractures of the MP joints, and enlargement of the metacarpal spaces have been reported. Thirty patients with unilateral involvement of this condition have been reported previously in literature. We reviewed these cases and found that there are varieties of the severity of this condition and it was reported by using different names. However, this condition seems different from true macrodactyly and multiple camptodactyly including windblown hand and does seem to be an own isolated entity of congenital upper limb anomalies. The authors recommend "Aberrant muscle syndrome" or "Accessory muscle syndrome" as a diagnostic name for this condition, because this seems to be most common pathological finding in this condition. |
