Palmar crease

A palmar crease is a type of crease on the palm significant in Palmistry. A single transverse palmar crease is sometimes associated with Down syndrome, though other physical symptoms manifest with this relatively rare syndrome.[1] Other types of creases include the Sydney crease and the Suwon, or double transverse palmar crease.
