Abstract
A newborn infant with craniofacial dysmorphism and polysndactyly (Greig's Syndrome) is reported. This syndrome is manifested by postaxial polydactyly of the fingers and preaxial polydactyly of the toes, with syndactyly. The craniofacial dysmorphism is characterized by frontal bossing and other variable manifestations. X-ray examination revealed markedly advanced bone age. The mode of inheritance appears to be autosomal dominant.Keywords
