Club foot—An inward twist and turn of the foot, also known as talipes equinovarus.
Congenital radial head dislocation—A dislocation of the elbow that may impede proper bending and flexing.
Congenital radioulnar synostosis—An abnormal development of the joints.
Isolated limb malformation—A limb malformation that occurs in the absence of any other clinical problem. It can also be referred to as a non-syndromic limb malformation.

Your limb malformation is symmetrical (on both the right and left hands or feet).
