Clubfoot- MedGen UID:

- Congenital Abnormality
Clubfoot is a congenital limb deformity defined as fixation of the foot in cavus, adductus, varus, and equinus (i.e., inclined inwards, axially rotated outwards, and pointing downwards) with concomitant soft tissue abnormalities (Cardy et al., 2007). Clubfoot may occur in isolation or as part of a syndrome (e.g., diastrophic dysplasia, 222600). Clubfoot has been reported with deficiency of long bones and mirror-image polydactyly (Gurnett et al., 2008; Klopocki et al., 2012).
Knee flexion contracture- MedGen UID:
- 98042
- •Concept ID:
- C0409355
- •
- Finding
A type of knee joint contracture in which the knee is in a fixed bent (flexed) configuration such that it cannot be straightened actively or passively.
Pes cavus- MedGen UID:
- 675590
- •Concept ID:
- C0728829
- •
- Congenital Abnormality
An increase in height of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot that does not flatten on weight bearing (i.e., a distinctly hollow form of the sole of the foot when it is bearing weight).
Areflexia- MedGen UID:
- 115943
- •Concept ID:
- C0234146
- •
- Finding
Absence of neurologic reflexes such as the knee-jerk reaction.
Delayed ability to walk- MedGen UID:
- 66034
- •Concept ID:
- C0241726
- •
- Finding
A failure to achieve the ability to walk at an appropriate developmental stage. Most children learn to walk in a series of stages, and learn to walk short distances independently between 12 and 15 months.
Inability to walk- MedGen UID:
- 107860
- •Concept ID:
- C0560046
- •
- Finding
Incapability to ambulate.
Broad-based gait- MedGen UID:
- 167799
- •Concept ID:
- C0856863
- •
- Finding
An abnormal gait pattern in which persons stand and walk with their feet spaced widely apart. This is often a component of cerebellar ataxia.
Peripheral axonal neuropathy- MedGen UID:
- 266071
- •Concept ID:
- C1263857
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
An abnormality characterized by disruption of the normal functioning of peripheral axons.
Axonal degeneration- MedGen UID:
- 332464
- •Concept ID:
- C1837496
- •
- Finding
Decreased number of peripheral myelinated nerve fibers- MedGen UID:
- 346872
- •Concept ID:
- C1858285
- •
- Finding
A loss of myelinated nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system (in general, this finding can be observed on nerve biopsy).
Decreased motor nerve conduction velocity- MedGen UID:
- 388130
- •Concept ID:
- C1858729
- •
- Finding
A type of decreased nerve conduction velocity that affects the motor neuron.
Hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 10133
- •Concept ID:
- C0026827
- •
- Finding
Hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle). Even when relaxed, muscles have a continuous and passive partial contraction which provides some resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia thus manifests as diminished resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia is not the same as muscle weakness, although the two conditions can co-exist.
Muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 57735
- •Concept ID:
- C0151786
- •
- Finding
Reduced strength of muscles.
Decreased muscle mass- MedGen UID:
- 373256
- •Concept ID:
- C1837108
- •
- Finding
Intrinsic hand muscle atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 351202
- •Concept ID:
- C1864716
- •
- Finding
Atrophy of the intrinsic muscle groups of the hand, comprising the thenar and hypothenar muscles; the interossei muscles; and the lumbrical muscles.
Respiratory insufficiency- MedGen UID:
- 11197
- •Concept ID:
- C0035229
- •
- Pathologic Function
Impairment of gas exchange within the lungs secondary to a disease process, neoplasm, or trauma, possibly resulting in hypoxia, hypercarbia, or both, but not requiring intubation or mechanical ventilation. Patients are normally managed with pharmaceutical therapy, supplemental oxygen, or both.
Tracheomalacia- MedGen UID:
- 215296
- •Concept ID:
- C0948187
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Congenital tracheomalacia is a rare condition where the trachea is soft and flexible causing the tracheal wall to collapse when exhaling, coughing or crying, that usually presents in infancy, and that is characterized by stridor and noisy breathing or upper respiratory infections. Tracheomalacia improves by the age of 18-24 months.
Vocal cord paralysis- MedGen UID:
- 53047
- •Concept ID:
- C0042928
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A loss of the ability to move the vocal folds.
- Abnormality of limbs
- Abnormality of the musculoskeletal system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
- Abnormality of the respiratory system
- Abnormality of the voice
