Suffering From Congenital Proximal Unilateral Radioulnar Synostosis In My Left Arm, Limited Rotation In Right Arm. Abnormal DNA?

Hi I have Congenital Proximal Unilateral Radioulnar Synostosis in my left arm. My ulna is also too long which results in me having no supination or pronation in that wrist . Also, I have a fibrosis union of sorts in my right arm giving me limited rotation. Are the 2 in any way related? And is Radioular Synostosis a code in the DNA or is it an abnormality to the DNA code?

Hello

Thanks for the query

The condition you are suffering from is congenital and it is because of genetic mutuation involving the DNA coding. However if you are the only person in the family suffering from this issue then it might be an isolated event which might not transmit to the next generation

I hope I was of help
