title: [Polysyndactylia with brachymetacarpia (Type Bonola)].
abstract: Four cases of polysyndactyly from Japan, Taiwan and Turkey are described, which show similar short thumbs, metacarpals and middle phalanges as well as analogous malformations of the feet. A new type of polysyndactyly can be defined. The occurrence in brother and sister from a consanguineous marriage is consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance.
