And now De Silva from Brazil's Brasilia, has welcomed a new member of their special clan, a child with the same genetic anomalies, reports the Sun”, the Periscope broadcast.
But De Silva sees it as their unique sign, calling itself the “family of Six”.
His father Alessandro said: “This is a sign that no other family has, that's what makes us special from the” crowd.
He has six fingers, and his wife Katia has five fingers in each hand.
This meant that there was a 50 - percent chance that their young son, Winnitius, would inherit with six fingers.
Katia said: “We discovered that Winnitius was a boy in the thirteenth week of pregnancy, and from that moment we hoped he would have six fingers”.
The genetic syndrome that causes people to be born with extra fingers is called Polydactyly. Amazingly, this is at one in 1,000 births./Periscopi/
