Within this paper a family is being described in which foot deformities are shown over four generations. During two generations cleft foot is found as well as a syndaktylism. The cases are demonstrated clinically, by photographs and also by X-ray. The question of inheritance is being discussed in comparison with the existing literature, also taking into account the coexistence of cleft foot and syndaktylism.
