Unusual clinical findings on children's hands
The authors deal with less frequent abnormal clinical findings on the hands. Their knowledge can often help to reassure children and their parents who are concerned about the presence of a serious disease. The authors report literature data as well as their own experience in three case reports dealing with less common anomalies: Kirner's deformity, camptodactyly, and pachydermodactyly. In each particular case, the aetiology, clinical and x-ray presentation, and therapeutic approaches are presented.
Keywords: children, Kirner's deformity, camptodactyly, pachydermodactyly.
