MedGen UID:
375339
Concept ID:
C1844017
Disease or Syndrome
Hirschsprung disease-type D brachydactyly syndrome is characterized by Hirschsprung disease and absence or hypoplasia of the nails and distal phalanges of the thumbs and great toes (type D brachydactyly). It has been described in four males from one family (two brothers and two maternal uncles). Transmission appears to be X-linked recessive but autosomal dominant inheritance with incomplete penetrance in females can not be ruled out.
