Does my baby have a congenital syndactyly of the right hand and does he have to have a skin graft at the time of surgery?

Because the skin of the syndactyly is attached to the finger, many syndactyly separated fingers will have varying degrees of skin loss in the area that was originally attached to the finger, and rarely can they be sutured directly, but in most cases some will be missing. If the skin loss is too large or too much during the syndactyly surgery, in the past, skin grafts were used to cover the wound. Some skin is taken from other parts of the baby’s body, and the donor area for the implant is usually the stomach, because the skin in this area is relatively softer and more resilient, which makes it more suitable. The effect of skin grafting is not bad, but because of the skin grafted from other parts of the body, it will leave trauma and scars after the operation, which will have a certain impact on the aesthetics, and parents need to be prepared for this. After all, the implanted skin is not the original, there will be a certain degree of necrosis after the operation, the recipient area will also appear pigmentation and sensory function decline phenomenon, the overall state and the normal finger compared to the difference is still relatively obvious, many parents will also be concerned about this point. Is it possible to have a syndactyly without skin grafting? Of course it is possible, because the implant surgery will have some impact, so we are now using artificial dermis induced no implant technology, with artificial dermis material to induce the skin to grow on its own, so as to avoid the new trauma, scars, trauma can be restored more naturally, there will be no hyperpigmentation and sensory loss of function phenomenon, the overall effect of implantation than a great progress.
