Differences in a number of dermatoglyphic signs in patients with endogenous forms of the disease were found when analysing dermatoglyphics among 535 patients with congenital deaf-mutism. These differences may be of certain significance for differentiation between exogenous and endogenous forms of deaf-mutism, that is of great importance for a medico-genetical consultation with respect to progeny prognosis.
