Holt Oram syndrome:
- hooked lateral clavicles
- absence of the thumbs
- some hypoplasia of the radii
Case Discussion
There is absence of the thumbs and some hypoplasia of the radii. The clavicles display a prominent lateral hook.
In association with congenital heart disease, the upper limb deformities are suggestive of Holt Oram syndrome which was confirmed.
This patient's father also had the condition.
