Abstract

Polydactyly means the presence of more than the normal number of fingers or toes. It can vary from unnoticeable rudimentary finger or toe to fully develop extra digit, which occur as an isolated congenital anomaly or as one aspect of multi-symptom disease or syndrome. Several syndromes were reported to be associated with polydactyly and geneticist often play roles in examination of children with this deformity for other congenital anomalies.
