title: The treatment of congenital clinodactyly of the hand.
abstract: Based on a review of 49 cases (involving 92 digits) of clinodactyly of the hand the authors analyse the cause, associated deformities and amount of time and procedures required for treatment. What emerges in particular is the importance of the age at which corrective surgery is performed.
