Abstract :
Syndactyly is a condition in which the digits
are abnormally wedded, either congenital or acquired.
I'm going to present a case report on how K wires and a
mini external fixator were used to desyndactylize
webbed great and second toes, as well as methods for
anatomic correction, skin coverage, and tension-free
closure. A split-thickness skin graft from the posterior
thigh of the ipsilateral leg is used with a mini external
fixator in this case because the syndactyly is congenital,
simple, and complete.
Keywords :
Syndactyly; Syndactylism; Desyndactylization; Split thickness skin graft; mini Fixator.
