“…Two of the patients in this report had congenital constriction band syndrome but did not have any bands noted on the side with clubfoot and peroneal nerve palsy. We have seen cases of constriction bands in the proximal lateral leg causing a constrictive peroneal nerve lesion that leads to an equinovarus foot deformity, and this paralytic type of clubfoot associated with constriction bands has been described in the literature [12]. No bands were noted on the lower extremities of any of the cases reported here.…”

“…These findings are thought to represent lymphatic or neurovascular disruption caused by the ring. There may be sensory deficits, especially when rings occur at the proximal aspect of the extremity [16][17][18][19] . Type 3 is acrosyndactyly, or fenestrated syndactyly, which is a distal cutaneous fusion of the skin with separation of the digits proximally.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
