Cost of neonatal surgery for six fingers

When a newborn is found to have six fingers, this may be related to exposure to certain drugs or radiation during pregnancy, or genetic factors. Newborns are not suitable for six-finger surgery because the child is too young. Generally speaking, you need to be about one year old and can tolerate anesthesia before considering surgical treatment. The total cost of the surgery is generally five or six thousand dollars, mainly because the surgery needs to be performed under general anesthesia, and the recovery can be complete after the surgery. In the early stages of neonatal six fingers, it is enough to pay attention to observation, and no special treatment is needed. The other thing is to strengthen the wound after surgery to change the medication and keep the wound dry, and the stitches can be removed two weeks after surgery. If you can’t tell which finger belongs to the dominant finger at the age of one year, you can continue to wait for observation and wait until you are a little older and can distinguish the dominant finger before surgery.
