While it is often found in people with Down Syndrome, [3] many who have this syndrome do not have this crease, and thus is not a diagnostic indicator of Down Syndrome. The presence of a single transverse palmar has been associated with several abnormal medical conditions—that is, it is found at a higher than 1.5% frequency, but in all of ...
A palmar crease is a type of crease on the palm. A single transverse palmar crease also called simian crease is sometimes associated with Down syndrome. [1] Other types of creases include the Sydney crease and the Suwon, or double transverse palmar crease. [2] Analysis of palmar creases is not very objective on the contrary to fingerprint ...
Minor physical anomalies (MPAs) are relatively minor (typically painless and, in themselves, harmless) congenital physical abnormalities consisting of features such as low-set ears, single transverse palmar crease, telecanthus, micrognathism, macrocephaly, hypotonia and furrowed tongue.
A wide variety of abnormalities of the hands and feet, including the nails and the creases of the hand, have been described and differentiated. [4] Many of these abnormalities do not have an impact on function but may be useful in diagnosing genetic syndromes; for example, the single transverse palmar crease is commonly associated with Down ...
Noonan syndrome: increased frequency of whorls on fingertips; and the axial triradius t, as in Turner syndrome, is more often in position t' or t" than in controls. [8] Increased incidence of the single transverse palmar crease. Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome): excess of arches on fingertips and single transverse palmar creases in 60% of patients. [9]
Down syndrome or Down's syndrome, [12] also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21. [3] It is usually associated with developmental delays, mild to moderate intellectual disability , and characteristic physical features.

An anaphase lag of a chromosome 21 in a Down syndrome embryo leads to a fraction of euploid cells (2n cells), phenomenon described as "aneuploidy rescue". There is considerable variability in the fraction of cells with trisomy 21, both as a whole and tissue-by-tissue. This is the cause of 1–2% of the observed Down syndromes. [4]
