Bilateral Sprengel Deformities, Mirror Movements Synkinesis, and Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita: A Novel Combination
View through CrossRef
Introduction: Bilateral Sprengel deformities, mirror movements synkinesis, and arthrogryposis are described in different combinations in various syndromes but never together. Case Report: We present a 12-year-old girl who presented with bilateral shoulder deformities and difficulty in coordination while writing. On examination, she was noted to have bilateral Sprengel deformities with flexion contractures of upper-limb joints and mirror movements of both upper and lower-limb joints. Conclusion: In the light of relevant literature, we may speculate that these three have a causal relation and even a genetic basis but further studies are needed to prove the same. Keywords: Sprengel deformity, mirror movements, synkinesis, arthrogryposis.
