Abstract
The investigation was carried out in the group of 210 patients with cleft lip and palate including 129 males and 81 females. The control group included prints of 167 males and 178 females adult and phenotypically healthy inhabitants of the town of Zagreb. The reduction of the patterns in males in the hypothenar area and in the thenar and IV area in females reflect reduction of volar pads during the period of the foetal development of epidermal ridges which is probably due to a disharmonious growth of the underlying palmar structures in subjects with clefts.
