Abstract
Summary A kindred of brachydactyly is described in which there was disturbance of ossification of the middle phalanges of the hands and toes. There was also evidence of involvement of other epiphyseal centers including two cases of unilateral and one of bilateral hip disease resembling Perthes' disease. Degenerative arthritic changes do not appear to occur in this kindred. A high frequency of abnormal dermatoglyphic patterns occurred on the fingers and in the thenar/interdigital area of the palm and the hallucal area of the sole.
