Distances of Palmar Flexion Creases (Haustra Digiti) and Digital Formulae in Right and Left Handed People

Digital flexion creases are one of the external anatomical landmarks in the hand. In this study, we measured and compared the distances between the digital skin creases (haustra digiti) in the fingers of right-handed and left-handed individuals. We also recorded the digital formulae. No significant...
