Radial polydactyly refers to the presence of an extra digit (or extra digits) on the radial side of the hand. It is most frequent in Indian populations and it is the second most common congenital hand disorder. The incidence of radial polydactyly is reported as 1 in every 3,000 live births. [14]
Ectrodactyly-polydactyly syndrome is a very rare congenital limb malformation syndrome of genetic origin which is characterized a combination of ectrodactyly and polydactyly [1] consisting of underdeveloped/absent central rays of the hands or feet alongside postaxial polydactyly in the same limb that can range from a hypoplastic, bone-devoid extra digit to a fully developed supernumerary digit ...
Scalp defects-postaxial polydactyly syndrome is a very rare genetic disorder which is characterized by congenital defects of the scalp and type A postaxial polydactyly. [1] [2] An additional finding is severe intellectual disability. It is thought to be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.
Pallister–Hall syndrome (PHS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects various body systems. [1] The main features are a non-cancerous mass on the hypothalamus (hypothalamic hamartoma) and extra digits (polydactylism). The prevalence of Pallister-Hall Syndrome is unknown; about 100 cases have been reported in publication. [2]
Young–Madders syndrome, alternatively known as Pseudotrisomy 13 syndrome or holoprosencephaly–polydactyly syndrome, is a genetic disorder resulting from defective and duplicated chromosomes which result in holoprosencephaly, polydactyly, facial malformations and intellectual disability, with a significant variance in the severity of symptoms being seen across known cases.

Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome is a disorder that affects development of the limbs, head, and face. The features of this syndrome are highly variable, ranging from very mild to severe. People with this condition typically have one or more extra fingers or toes (polydactyly) or an abnormally wide thumb or big toe . [1]
All of the cats in the litter were born with polydactyly, a relatively common and harmless genetic variation in cats which means they are born with multiple extra toes. Related: 22-Pound ...
Bardet–Biedl syndrome is a pleiotropic disorder with variable expressivity and a wide range of clinical variability observed both within and between families. The most common clinical features are rod–cone dystrophy, with childhood-onset night-blindness followed by increasing visual loss; postaxial polydactyly; truncal obesity that manifests during infancy and remains problematic ...
