General Conversation
Schinzel syndrome, also called ulnar-mammary syndrome, is an unusual inherited condition defined by irregularities of the bones of the hands as well as lower arms in association with underdevelopment (hypoplasia) as well as disorder of particular sweat (apocrine) glands and/or the busts (mammary glandulars). Abnormalities affecting the hands and/or lower arms vary from underdevelopment of the bone in the pointer of the fifth finger (hypoplastic terminal phalanx) to underdevelopment or full lack of the bone on the external facet of the lower arm (ulna).

Furthermore, certain sweat glands such as those located under the arms might be underdeveloped or absent, leading to lessened capacity or inability to sweat (perspire). In some cases, the busts (mammary glands) could likewise be underdeveloped or absent; as a result, affected ladies display a diminished capability or an inability to produce milk (lactate).

The array and severity of physical irregularities related to Schinzel syndrome varies significantly among affected people; some situations might be extremely moderate, while others might be much more serious.
