Palmar Crease, Single Transverse

Definition:

Objective: The distal and proximal transverse palmar creases are merged into a single transverse palmar crease

Comments:

The term five finger crease for the proximal transverse crease is sourced from [Hall et al., [2007]]. The subtypes of single transverse palmar crease are not recognized here [Hook et al., [1974]]. Replaces the term Simian crease as that term is disparaging and less descriptive.

Replaces:

• Simian Crease
