Short fingers are a bit of a problem, why is that? Because there are all sorts of different types of short fingers, such as Poland Syndrome Short Fingers and Short Fingers with Missing Fingers. So when we look at the question of when is the best time to do surgery for short fingers in babies with finger deformities, it depends on the situation. Nowadays, we come across more short fingers where the metacarpal bone is present, but the metacarpophalangeal joint is completely absent, and there is only a small fleshy mass at the distal end of the finger. In this case, we would recommend early surgery, why? Because this type of short finger is completely non-functional, we need to operate as early as possible to establish function as early as possible, which is very meaningful for the baby. In addition, the younger the baby is, the better he/she will recover and the result after surgery will be more satisfactory. If it is other types of short fingers, we have to look at the actual situation, in addition to the type of short fingers of the child, but also depends on the parents’ ideas, comprehensively formulate a personalized treatment plan, so as to achieve the desired therapeutic effect.
