What do palmar creases mean?
There are typically two creases in the palm, but in some people, only one crease is present.
A single palmar crease occurs in about 1 out of 30 people, but is also frequently associated with other conditions such as Down syndrome, Aarskog syndrome or fetal alcohol syndrome.What are the patterns of palmar creases?
Based on the three main palmar creases, thenar, proximal, and distal transverse creases, four patterns of palmar creases are identified; nonvariant, Sydney, Suwon, and simian.
Can you have a palmar crease and not have Down syndrome?
Having a single palmar crease is often normal.
However, it may also be associated with various conditions that affect a person's mental and physical growth, including: Down syndrome.- However, some people believe that having a simian line in both hands is associated with certain personality traits or health conditions.
In terms of personality traits, some people believe that individuals with a simian line in both hands may be more emotional, intense, and focused than those without this feature.
What is palmar plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE)?
Palmar plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) is a distinctive and relatively frequent toxic reaction related to some chemotherapeutic agents. Doxorubicin, cytarabine, docetaxel, and fluorouracil are the most frequently implicated agents. PPE seems to be dose dependent and both peak drug concentration and total cumulative dose determine its occurrence.
What are palmar and plantar fibromatoses?
Palmar and plantar fibromatoses are both benign, superficial, proliferative processes of the palmar and plantar aponeuroses, respectively, caused by the proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts.
What is palmar fibromatosis (Dupuytren disease/contracture)?
Palmar fibromatosis (Dupuytren disease/contracture) is the most common type of fibromatosis, defined as a benign proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts.
How is palmar fibromatosis diagnosed?
The diagnosis of both plantar and palmar fibromatosis is usually made clinically, although occasionally histologic confirmation may be necessary. Palmar fibromatosis often presents with subcutaneous nodules on the distal volar aspect which puckers the overlying skin as it ages.
