What causes six fingers in infants

summary

Polydactyly is one of many congenital malformations, or a unique disease. If it is unique, it is often related to the somatic dominant mutation of a single gene rather than the mutation of a multi factor trait, but the mutation of different genes can cause polydactyly. That is to say, children's fingers are mostly inherited by adults. Maybe adults don't show it, but it doesn't mean that they don't carry such genes. If you think it will affect the appearance, you can do surgical resection in the cosmetic surgery department. The operation is not big and the prognosis is good. I'd like to talk about the reasons for this situation and hope to help you.
