Abstract
Macrodactyly is an uncommon congenital hand condition that can be difficult to treat and that can have a profound negative impact on patients and their families. Although many treatments have been described, results tend to be inconsistent. The authors report a case in which a combination of ray resection, partial finger resection, and toe transfer resulted in a 4-digit hand with acceptable function and cosmesis.
