Polydactyly-myopia syndrome, also known as Czeizel-Brooser syndrome, is a very rare genetic disorder which is characterized by post-axial polydactyly on all 4 limbs and progressive myopia.[1] Additional symptoms include bilateral congenital inguinal hernia and undescended testes.[2] It has only been described in nine members of a 4-generation Hungarian family in the year 1986.[3][4][5][6] This disorder is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.[7][8]
