Polydactyly surgery for functional and aesthetic reconstruction
A surgical procedure to reconstruct a digit that has extra fingers or toes (polydactyly). The procedure involves both soft tissue and bone reconstruction to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing digit. The surgeon will remove any extra tissue and bone, reshape the remaining structures, and use grafts or implants to reconstruct the digit. The goal is to create a digit that functions normally and has a natural appearance. The procedure may be performed on infants or adults, depending on the severity of the polydactyly. Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the surgery, but most patients can expect to resume normal activities within a few weeks.
