The child with Poland Syndrome came in for a review and is recovering nicely!

Before the surgery, the child’s hand was very small, and when he came in for a review, the parents said that the child’s hand had grown a lot and was moving very well and grasping things well. The earlier we intervene, the better the results will be, because without intervention, the child’s range of motion is very limited. When we separate the syndactyly at an early age, the child’s range of motion will be greater, and the child will be willing to move the hand, so the child’s hand will develop better. There are more than 300 syndromes with syndactyly in the literature, the most common ones are poland syndrome, Apert syndrome, and girdle syndrome.
