👉 Oligodactylia is a medical condition that refers to a person with Down's Syndrome, characterized by an abnormal development of their fingers and toes. It occurs because of a defect in one or both of these two main bones - the metacarpals (the fingers) and the metatarsals (the toes). While this is not uncommon in individuals with Down's Syndrome, it can also be caused by other genetic conditions like spina bifida or craniofacial anomalies.
