The occurrence of polydactyly in a 33-year-old woman with a patent ductus arteriosus stimulated a study of her family. Four generations of her kindred were examined. No other case of congenital heart disease was discovered, but a large number of individuals with polydactyly were found. Inheritance of this trait is autosomal dominant.
