28641004: Phalanx structure (body structure)

SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Structure of bone organ\Bone structure\...

A rare, congenital limb malformation characterized by shortened or underdeveloped middle phalanges of all digits, that are sometimes fused with the terminal phalanges. The proximal phalanges of the thumbs and big toes are also shortened. Short stature in adulthood has been reported in association.	Finding site	False	Phalanx structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
An extremely rare congenital limb malformation syndrome, described in only 3 patients to date, characterized by the association of hypoplasia or aplasia of the hand and foot phalanges, hemivertebrae and various urogenital and/or intestinal abnormalities (i.e. dysgenesis of the urogenital tract and rectum). There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1991.	Finding site	False	Phalanx structure	Inferred relationship	Some	3
Hyperphalangy is a congenital, non-syndromic limb malformation characterized by the presence of an accessory phalanx between metacarpal/metatarsal and proximal phalanx, or between any two other phalanges of a digit, excluding the thumb. Hyperphalangy is almost always bilateral, and patients present no more than five digits and no other skeletal anomalies.	Finding site	True	Phalanx structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1

Sugarman brachydactyly is a rare, genetic, congenital limb malformation characterized by brachydactyly of fingers, with major proximal phalangeal shortening and immobile proximal interphalangeal joints, as well as dorsally and proximally placed, non-articulating great toes (with or without angulation). Radiographic findings of hands include bilateral double first metacarpals and biphalangeal fifth fingers. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1982.
