Camptodactyly or streblodactyly – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/55592470

Camptodactyly (MIM 114200) is a digit deformity characterised by permanent flexion contracture of fifth digits at the proximal interphalangeal joints. Camptodactyly of fingers is clinically more evident than camptodactyly of toes. Sporadic cases are common; familial camptodactyly may be associated with a number of genetic syndromes such as Blau syndrome. Camptodactyly may not become apparent until adult life. Streblodactyly is less common and is used when these changes extend to involve other digits.
