“…Unlike other isolated coalitions in the literature these involve bones in both the proximal and distal carpal rows, though they can be considered to be in the lateral column of the wrist. STT coalitions have been associated with bilateral lunate-triquetral coalition [25], hand-footuterus syndrome [26], otopalatadigital syndrome [27] and hereditary symphalangism [28].…”

Carpal coalitions are uncommon and are frequently asymptomatic. 15 Patients with persistent symptomatic scaphotrapeziotrapezoid (STT) carpal coalitions unresponsive to six months of conservative treatment with no history of trauma went for further investigations. CT scans and bone scans revealed that coalition was the only abnormality to account for the patient's ongoing problems. The senior authors explored the carpal coalition surgically excising the affected region and interposing capsular fibrous tissue. Histologically partial bony and cartilaginous bridging was evident with no features of degenerative arthritis being noted. Good or excellent subjective results were achieved in all patients at final review an average of 2.7 (1.0 -4.2) years after surgery. All patients described significant reduction in visual analogue pain scores from an average of 71.5 to 18.4 points. The Green and O'Brien wrist scores improved from a mean of 58.2 to 94.2, with all patients returning to work with improved function. Normally carpal coalition is treated with arthrodesis or excision of part of the carpus. A further treatment option is outlined here with recreation of the joint space in symptomatic, isolated, nonsyndromic scaphotrapezio-trapezoidal coalition.

“…This malformation and carpal and tarsal synostosis may occur separately [Rothberg et al, 1935;Boyd, 1944;Smitham, 1948;Steinberg and Reynolds, 1948;Bersani and Samilson, 1957;Wray and Herndon, 1963;McKusick et al, 19641, or in association with other anomalies [Pearlman et al, 1964;Goeminne and Dujardin, 1970;Poznanski et al, 1970;Christian et al, 19751. These conditions are usually transmitted as autosomal dominant traits.…”

Multiple synostosis syndrome: Study of a large Brazilian kindred

1984

We report a large Brazilian kindred with 28 cases of the autosomal dominant multiple synostosis syndrome. The main anomalies were symphalangism and carpal and tarsal synostoses. Other common findings included synostosis involving other bones, absence of phalanges and nails, short metacarpals, pes planovalgus with prominent lateral border, hypoplastic alae of nose, short upper lip, and dermatoglyphic abnormalities. This may be a variant of the WL syndrome.
