This theory is reinforced by the clinical presentation of the constriction rings with other internal visceral and systematic anomalies. (wikipedia.org)
Because of these other anomalies, the names constriction ring syndrome, constriction band syndrome, and Streeter bands are given to this defect/disease. (wikipedia.org)
The hand surgeon treating children with upper extremity anomalies must offer surgery to improve the child's function and cosmesis, when possible, and counsel parents about what is and is not possible with surgery. (medscape.com)
