ResumoIn a series of 34 patients with defects of the radial ray, 24 individuals had additional clinical manifestations. A firm syndromic diagnosis could be reached in 17 persons (TAR syndrome 4, Holt‐Oram syndrome 8, Fanconi anaemia 2, VATER association 2, Radial ray‐choanal atresia 1). In the remainder, no specific diagnosis could be established. The heterogeneity of radial ray syndromes has important implications for prognostication and genetic counselling.
