Heart-hand syndrome type 2 is an extremely rare heart-hand syndrome (see this term) described in two families to date, that is characterized by upper limb malformations (brachytelephalangy type D, hypoplastic deltoids, mild shortening of the fourth and fifth metacarpals in some individuals, skeletal anomalies in the humerus, radius, ulnae, and thenar bones) and cardiac arrhythmias (junctional rhythms and atrial fibrillation).

Any cardiac rhythm other than the normal sinus rhythm. Such a rhythm may be either of sinus or ectopic origin and either regular or irregular. An arrhythmia may be due to a disturbance in impulse formation or conduction or both.
