Abstract

The development of the upper extremity starts with the outgrowth of the limb bud in the fourth week of pregnancy when the embryo is 4 mm long. In this limb bud, which consists of mesoderm, cartilage, neuromuscular structures and vascular structures develop. At 8 weeks, this differentiation process is well advanced. Malfunctions in this process, genetic or acquired, result in (combinations of) malformations.
