Cousin's Child Has Birth Defects


Recommended Posts

My cousin had a child today. The same two fingers are fused together on both hands and the corresponding toes of both feet. He also has a very high fever and is not considered in stable condition.

 

I don't have any more info since they live far away and my uncle was frantic when we talked to him. Last I heard they were running some tests on the chromosomes.

 

Is this a known disorder or some kind of strange mutation? Do you have any idea what it could mean for the child's health in the future, or other problems that may exist that we don't know about yet?

actually, i had the same problem. i heard my mom had a fever while she was pregnant and the doctor gave way too strong medicine. so two fingers on my left hand and three on the right were fused ( only the skin, so easily treated with surgery)
