| Hunt's paradoxical phenomenon | In dystonia musculorum deformans, if an attempt is made at plantar flexion of the foot when the foot is in dorsal spasm the only response is an increase of the extensor, or dorsal, spasm; if, however, the patient is told to extend the foot which is already in a state of strong dorsal flexion, there will be a sudden movement of plantar flexion; the same phenomenon, mutatis mutandis, is observed when there is a condition of strong plantar flexion.

| Hunter syndrome | <syndrome> A recessive mucopolysaccharidosis, also designated mucopolysaccharidosis II, caused by a deficiency of the enzyme iduronate sulphate sulphatase which breaks down dermatan sulphate and heparen sulphate and consequently, the mucopolysaccharides accumulate in the cells of the body and cause damage. Symptoms are treated as they appear. Hunter syndrome is the most common of the mucopolysaccharide disorders. In its severe form this X-linked disease presents with coarse facial features, short stature, skeletal dysplasia, retinitis pigmentosa, hepatosplenomegaly, neurologic deterioration, and death in childhood. It is often distinguished clinically from Hurler syndrome by the absence of corneal clouding. Milder forms allow for survival to adulthood with minimal neurologic problems. Patients have the two types of sulphates in their urine. A variety of point mutations, splicing defects and deletions have been found in the gene, with full deletions causing the most severe disease. at present there is no cure. Inheritance: sex-linked (X chromosome). (29 Dec 1997) |
| Hunter's canal | The space in middle third of the thigh between the vastus medialis and adductor muscles, converted into a canal by the overlying sartorius muscle.

| Hunter's ligament | A fibromuscular band that is attached to the uterus on either side in front of and below the opening of the uterine tube; it passes through the inguinal canal to the labium majus; corresponds to the spermatic cord of male in that it passes through the inguinal canal and gains similar coverings, but is not homologous. Synonym: ligamentum teres uteri, Hunter's ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Hunter's syndrome | <syndrome> An error of mucopolysaccharide metabolism characterised by deficiency of iduronate sulfatase, with excretion of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate in the urine; clinically similar to Hurler's syndrome but distinguished by less severe skeletal changes, no corneal clouding, and X-linked recessive inheritance. Synonym: type II mucopolysaccharidosis. (05 Mar 2000) |

transabdominal repair of a chronically inverted uterus.

| Huntington's disease |
A late but variable age onset lethal human disease of nerve degeneration. Inherited as an autosomal dominant phenotype. Shows imprinting individuals inheriting HD from their father show significantly earlier onset than those inheriting a maternal allele. Shows genetic anticipation, in that the severity increase and age of onset decreases in affected individuals of later generations in a pedigree. The HD gene, encoding a protein called huntingtin, has been cloned.
