title: [Syndactyly: an angiographic study].
abstract: Systematic angiographic examination (87 angiographies) done in all the congenital malformations of the hand and in particular in cases of syndactyly in patients 6-11 years of age, has given the authors the opportunity to observe anomalies of the vascular topography of the hand (distal displacement of the bifurcation of the common digital arteries, anomalies of excess or lack of arteries of the palm: common digital arteries, proper digital arteries, etc.) and of performing surgery carefully according to the angiographic appearance of the malformation.
