Synpolydactyly is a combination of syndactyly and polydactyly. This image shows the hand morphology of an individual with polydactyly. SPD is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that an individual only needs to inherit one copy of the affected gene, also known as an allele, from either parent to potentially develop the condition.
The variant of MS that fuses the 4th and 5th metacarpals is caused by X-linked recessive mutations (alterations or duplications) in the FGF16 gene, in chromosome X. [10]It is a feature of various rare disorders such as Apert's syndrome, and can occur alongside other isolated congenital hand/foot malformations including syndactyly, cleft hand, metatarsal synostosis, and polydactyly.
X-ray of polydactylic left hand a Wikipedia:Featured picture. High-quality X-ray, clearly illustrates the topic polydactyly.

Polysyndactyly is a congenital anomaly, combining polydactyly and syndactyly, in which affected individuals have an extra finger or toe that is connected, via fusing or webbing, to an adjacent digit. [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
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 ...
Oligodactyly is therefore the opposite of polydactyly. [2] [3] Very rare, this medical condition usually has a genetic or familial cause. [3] [4] Oligodactyly is sometimes a sign or symptom of several syndromes including Poland syndrome and Weyer Ulnar Ray Syndrome. [5] It is a type of dysmelia.
Ulnar dimelia, also referred to simply as mirror hand, is a very rare congenital disorder characterized by the absence of the radial ray, duplication of the ulna, duplication of the carpal, metacarpal, and phalanx bones, and symmetric polydactyly.
