Clinically, this is often perceived as a solely cosmetic feature. However, because of a series of patients questioning the presence of hair on this location, we have performed a more in\u2010depth literature\u2010based evaluation of the trait. The goal of this manuscript was to examine the clinical significance of this anthropological phenomenon. A literature review was performed that focused on the differences of this trait in terms of pattern of presentation, age, race, sex, and usage as an identifiable marker for medical significance in certain medications and criteria for tailored treatment. Anatomically, middle phalangeal hair is mostly on the fourth finger and more ulnar rather than central or symmetric in pattern of deviation. Its presence has been most associated with high prenatal androgen exposure, predisposing patients to suffer from adverse side effects from oral contraceptives. Phalangeal hair may be helpful in tailoring treatment to certain patients from different ethnic backgrounds, and particularly in individuals with unknown ancestry.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1473-2165.2010.00532.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,2]],"date-time":"2010-12-02T07:37:04Z","timestamp":1291275424000},"page":"325-330","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Hair in the middle phalanges: clinical significance"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Adaeze","family":"Egesi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rashid","family":"Rashid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,12,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330040206"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","first-page":"127","article-title":"The middigital hair genes, their inheritance, and distribution among the white race","volume":"40","author":"Berstein ME","year":"1949","journal-title":"Hered"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1749-6632.1951.tb31952.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330250204"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000147895"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_2","volume-title":"Fetology: Diagnosis and Management of Fetal Patient","author":"Bianchi D","year":"2000"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2265.1994.tb02483.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15288\/jsa.2000.61.13"},{"issue":"8","key":"e_1_2_7_10_2","first-page":"612","article-title":"Black\u2010white differences in response to antihypertensive medication","volume":"87","author":"Moser M","year":"1995","journal-title":"J Natl Med Assoc"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaad.2008.09.063"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0190-9622(00)90006-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330390208"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330920205"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ecl.2007.03.004"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.psyneuen.2008.11.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_2","volume-title":"Digit Ratio: A Pointer to Fertility, Behavior, and Health","author":"Manning JT","year":"2002"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0165-0327(01)00356-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000542-200408000-00006"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_2","first-page":"537","article-title":"The hair distribution of the phalanges of the hand among Turks","volume":"137","author":"Hatiboglu MT","year":"1983","journal-title":"J Anat"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"311","DOI":"10.1127\/anthranz\/54\/1996\/311","article-title":"Distribution of hair on the dorsum of the phalanges of the hand in the Chinese population from Malaysia","volume":"54","author":"Dharap AS","year":"1996","journal-title":"Anthropol Anz"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_22_2","first-page":"326","article-title":"A study of some genetic markers among Ramgarhias, an artisan caste of Punjab","volume":"39","author":"Bhanwer AJ","year":"1981","journal-title":"Anthropol Anz"}],"container-title":["Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1473-2165.2010.00532.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1473-2165.2010.00532.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,2]],"date-time":"2023-11-02T19:32:27Z","timestamp":1698953547000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1473-2165.2010.00532.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,12]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2010,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1473-2165.2010.00532.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1473-2165.2010.00532.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1473-2130","1473-2165"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1473-2130","type":"print"},{"value":"1473-2165","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,12]]}}}
