In 3 patients, Rogers et al. (1977) observed postaxial polydactyly and other abnormalities of the hands and feet (brachydactyly, broad toes, syndactyly of toes 2 and 3), hypoplasia and fusion of vertebral bodies, and dental anomalies (fused teeth, macrodontia, hypodontia, short roots, etc.). Two of the patients were sisters born to normal unrelated parents; the third was a male offspring of normal but consanguineous parents. The third patient had congenital heart malformations. The combination of postaxial polydactyly and cardiac malformation should, perhaps, bring to mind this syndrome, in addition to the Ellis-van Creveld syndrome (225500) and the Kaufman syndrome (236700).
