The adducted thumbs syndrome is characterized by cleft palate, microcephaly, and dys‐myelination. A fifth case of this syndrome is presented. Several other syndromes which may present with adducted thumbs are reviewed and re‐assessed. The original contributions consist of discussions of (1) the possible pathogenesis of adducted thumbs in the congenital clasped thumb syndrome and in sex‐linked hydrocephalus, (2) the genetic heterogeneity of the clasped thumb syndrome, and (3) the significance of adducted thumbs as a possible marker in sex‐linked hydrocephalus.
