HOXD13 and hand-foot-genital syndrome: While it is known that mutations in HOXA13 or HOXD13 can cause specific limb phenotypes, such as hand-foot-genital-syndrome [42], [43] or synpolydactyly [44], [45], no HOXA9-related disease phenotype has been identified in patients so far, leaving the role of HOXA9 during human limb development unclear.
