Syndactyly may occur as an isolated birth problem and will generally involve the single webspace between the middle and ring fingers, although other fingers may be affected. Some cases of bilateral symmetric anomalies may be inherited. Certain syndromes may also be associated with syndactyly— the most common of which is Poland syndrome (sequence) in which foreshortened fingers are conjoined or Apert syndrome where there are bilaterally symmetric complex webbing of the fingers and toes.
