The simian crease is actually somewhat of a a mixed blessing. First, it's rare; only 1 in 30 normal people have it (and a crease on both hands is ever rarer). Second, in the world of palm reading.
- In some cases the lines of Heart and Head are not separate at all, but join together to form one line running straight across the entire palm. This is known as the Simian Line. (Also called the 'Simian Crease', 'Simian Fold', and 'Transverse Palmar Crease') When the Simian Line occurs, the 'Great Quadrangle' is entirely missing.
- Patients were all of low birth weight, had microretrognathia, microstomia, and microglossia, hypoplasia of the radius and ulna with radial deviation of the hands, simian creases and hypoplasia of fingers I and V, hypoplasia of the fibula and tibia with talipes and wide space between toes I and II, and severe malformation of the left heart which.
- Generally, the people have two separate lines, Heart line and the Mind line. That is a good condition in which the differentiation is there. The right palm is the karma hand and the left palm denotes the potential hand. If the Simian line appears on both the palm, then the person is following his/her potential hand.
simian crease
A dermatoglyphic pattern of a single deep transpalmar crease formed by fusion of proximal and distal palmar creases, which is classically seen in trisomy 21, but also in trisomies 13 and 9, and in foetal trimethadione syndrome. So called because of its verisimilitude to the same crease in monkeys.Segen's Medical Dictionary. © 2012 Farlex, Inc. All rights reserved.
