Abstract

Introduction: malformation of cleft hand and foot syndrome is a rare congenital defect with autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, symmetrical in shape.

Case presentation: a three-month-old female infant born at 36 weeks, weighing 2450 grams, height 50 cm, Apgar 8-9, detected at birth median cleft in both hands and feet with ectrodactyly of the 2nd and 3rd fingers of all limbs, no other malformations. The neonatology service of the provincial pediatric hospital requests assessment by clinical genetics that after an exhaustive physical examination leads to the syndromic diagnosis, resulting in the first case in the province.

Conclusions: considering of great value the clinical method to conduct the diagnosis with the help of radiological studies to be able to classify the type of ectrodactyly. The patient is kept with multidisciplinary follow-up by orthopedics, psychologists, physiatrists and clinical geneticist, providing adequate genetic counseling, as well as information on future operations that will improve the functions of her limbs and improve her quality of life.
