Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome

Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome is a congenital condition that causes malformations in the limbs. People with this condition often have complex syndactyly of the hands, which means the fingers may be fused together. There are also malformations in the forearm bones and similar problems in the lower limbs. This condition is identified at birth, and its physical manifestations can vary among individuals. The definition and recognized patterns of limb malformations help in understanding the overall nature of the syndrome. The condition is linked to specific genetic factors, which have been studied to better understand its causes.

People with Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome typically show complex syndactyly of the hands. They may also present malformations of the forearm bones and similar anomalies in the lower limbs. These physical signs are usually noticeable at birth.

Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome is a congenital condition with a genetic basis. It has been associated with changes in the LRP4 gene, which plays a role in limb development. This genetic association helps researchers understand how the condition develops from birth.
