brachydactyly type E2 — Definition
E2 tipi brakidakti / brachydactyly type E2
E2 type brachyminti is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormal short of hand and foot fingers. This situation occurs especially with shortness of middle fingers and sometimes other skeleton anomalies. The disease usually shows autozomal dominant inheritance and is caused by a disorder in the development of the fingers bones (falanks). Clinically, the fingers of patients are significantly short from normal, which can lead to functional limitations in everyday activities.

Brachydactyly type E2, el ve ayak parmaklarında kısalık ile karakterize, nadir görülen bir genetik bozukluktur. Genellikle otozomal dominant kalıtım gösterir ve HOXD13 genindeki mutasyonlarla ilişkilidir.
🧬 Causes & Risk Factors
HOXD13 genindeki mutasyonlar hastalığın başlıca nedenidir. Otozomal dominant kalıtım paterni gösterir, yani tek bir mutant allel hastalığa yol açar.
🩺 Symptoms & Signs
Metakarpal ve metatarsal kemiklerde kısalık, parmaklarda (özellikle 4. ve 5. parmaklarda) kısalık, el ve ayakta deformiteler, bazen eklem kısıtlılığı.
📋 Diagnostic Methods
Klinik muayene, radyografik görüntüleme (el ve ayak grafileri) ve genetik test (HOXD13 gen analizi) ile tanı konur.
💊 Treatment Options
Spesifik bir tedavisi yoktur. Semptomatik tedavi: Fizik tedavi, ortopedik cihazlar, ciddi deformitelerde cerrahi düzeltme.
⚠️ Complications
Fonksiyonel kısıtlılık, eklem ağrısı, psikososyal etkiler (kozmetik kaygılar).
