When babies are born with syndactyly, we used to think that it would be more appropriate to do the surgery after the age of one year because there were concerns about the complications of web crawling after syndactyly surgery. Early on, there was a belief that after separating syndactyly at a very early age, the chances of web crawling would be higher, so people would push back the surgery a little bit, and if they did it a little bit later, the possibility of web crawling would be less likely to occur. What is web creep? Finger web creep refers to the separation of the syndactyly and then slowly creeping back up again after a period of time, which is equivalent to the recurrence of syndactyly, but the recurrence is not normal skin, it is a scar, so people may say that if we do the surgery at six months of age, the scar will be bigger and will easily lead to the finger web creep. However, we have found that the correlation between the appearance of web crawling and age is not so much, but the appearance of web crawling is more related to the surgical method, such as whether there is infection or not, and whether the wound is healed well or not, and these factors are related to the appearance of web crawling. Now with the change in technology, we can do the surgery when the baby is about six months old. Compared to a one year old baby, if the baby has the same finger, the baby is younger, the wound is smaller, the growth is faster, the recovery is better, and the chances of the complications of web crawling are almost the same, so I would recommend the surgery at about six months old.
