Resumen
ABRIL-GAONA, César Augusto et al. Macrodactylia with complete complex syndactyly in hand: case report. Medicas UIS [online]. 2021, vol.34, n.2, pp.89-95. Epub 28-Sep-2021. ISSN 0121-0319. https://doi.org/10.18273/revmed.v34n2-2021009.
Macrodactyly is a rare congenital abnormality that occurs in 0.9% of upper limb malformations. It is characterized by an overgrowth of the soft tissues, bones, and fingers. The main objective of the treatment is to obtain a functional and aesthetically acceptable hand that allows adequate psychomotor development. The case of a patient with macrodactyly is reported together with complex syndactyly due to fusion of the distal phalanx or associated synonichia in middle and ring fingers of the left hand, where at 3 months after surgery there was functional and aesthetic improvement. MÉD.UIS.2021;34(2): 89-95.
