Description : Camptodactyly is defined as a permanent flexion contrature of 1 or both fifth fingers
at the proximal interphalangeal joints. Additional fingers might be affected, but
the little finger is always involved. Usually the condition appears to be sporadic
in a family, but clinical examination of relatives reveals that it is an autosomal
dominant condition subject to incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity (summary
by Malik et al., 2008).;
