OTHER GENETIC DISORDERS


- Next to the 'autosomal trisomy syndromes' (Group 1 - which were discussed in the previous paragraph), 3 other groups of syndromese are frequently accompagnied with typical hand features. However, in these other groups of syndromes the variations are larger compared to group 1 (the 'autosomal trisomy syndromes'). As a consequence the accessory 'phantom-pictures' describe the expected hand features less precise.

- The following presents an overview of important syndromes in each group:


- Group 2: Syndromes with a structural chromosomal malformation.

- Important examples of these syndromes are:

- 1 – fragile-x syndrome (or: Martin-Bell syndrome).
- 2 – Chri-du-chat syndrome (featured with: a defect on chromosome 5p).
- 3 – Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (featured with: a defect on chromosome 4p).
- 4 – 18p- syndrome, 18q- syndrome, en 18r syndrome.

- The scientific literature presents 'phantom pictures' for each of these syndromes.


- Group 3: Syndromes with a deviant number of sex chromosomes.

- Important examples in group 3 are:

- 1 – Turner's syndrome (XO).
- 2 – triple-x syndrome (XXX).
- 3 – Klinefelter's syndrome (XXY, XXXY, XXXXY, XXXXXY).
- 4 – XYY syndrome.

- The scientific literature presents 'phantom pictures' for Turner's syndrome and Klinefelter's syndrome.
