title: Ulnar thumb in cleft-hand-type congenital deformity. Case report.
abstract: A twelve-year-old boy with a two-digit cleft hand was successfully treated by stabilization, rotation and activation of the floating ulnar digit. This ulnar thumb proved to be a useful tool for daily life, but an even better result might have been achieved if the treatment had been given at an earlier age.
