Polidactilias del pulgar. Tratamiento quirúrgico

Abstract: Las polidactilias del pulgar, especialmente sus duplicaciones, constituyen una anomalía de frecuente presentación. Sus variantes son múltiples, lo que nos obliga a conocer cuáles son las diferencias anatómicas más relevantes en cada tipo en particular. Han sido muchas sus clasificaciones, pero la propuesta por Wassel, basada en los hallazgos radiológicos, continúa siendo tan simple como práctica. Excepto en los casos más simples, su cirugía reconstructiva es difícil, y debe ser encomendada a cirujanos con expe… Show more

“…Polydactyly has a broad range of incidence depending of race, genetics, etiology and other associated factors. 1 Previous studies demonstrate a wide variability regarding classification, which are important for morphological classification. A proper understanding of the anatomy involved leads to effective surgical planning and better post-surgical outcomes.…”

“…The majority occurs sporadically as an isolated trait, however, it may be associated to genetic alternated syndromes, or environmental factors such as exposure to teratogenic agents during embryonic development. 1 The diagnosis is clinical and should be made at birth or at first contact. A radiological evaluation is essential during early stages of life to classify the pathology and determine the best surgical treatment.…”
