Case Details

Four months after syndactyly repair, this young patient is healing well with improved separation and function of the affected toes. Syndactyly is a congenital condition in which two or more fingers or toes are joined together by skin, soft tissue, or, in some cases, bone. Surgical correction separates the digits to improve foot development, shoe fit, and long-term function while creating a more natural appearance. At four months, the surgical sites are healing nicely, with scars expected to continue softening and fading as recovery progresses over the coming months.
