Greig cephalopolysyndactyly is a rare multiple congenital anomaly characterized by clinical triad of polysyndactyly, macrocephalia and hypertelorism. In general, although it is characterized with autosomal dominant inheritance, there is also autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. Here, we aimed to discuss an infant who was born from multiple gestations arising from assisted reproduc-tion techniques and suspected to be Greig syndrome with no familial history. Best of our knowl-edge this is the first case related with assisted reproduction technique.
