A new family with the A2 type brachydactily is described. It is the first one observed in Italy and the sixth of the world literature. Brachymesophalangy of index fingers and/or second toes is the typical osseous malformation which was present in 14 individuals from 4 generations. The defect is transmitted by an autosomal dominant gene with high penetrance and variable expressivity.
