Abstract

We present a case of postaxial polydactyly with well formed six digits on left hand and seven digits
on right hand. Both conditions are rare and combination of these two conditions even rarer. The
patient also had supernumerary sixth right toe and cleft lip. Very few cases of postaxial polydactyly
are reported previously.
Key Words: cleft lip, polydactyly, postaxial, supranumerary toe, syndactyly
