The author presents his view on the problem of treatment of ectrodactyly on the basis of his experience with treatment of 159 children with this complex pathology. 1211 plastic and reconstructive operations were made on these patients. Results of the treatment were followed up during 14 years. A critical analysis is given in the light of long-term results of using the methods of recovery of under-developed fingers. The succession of the elimination of the hand defects giving favorable results in most patients is considered. Attention is given to inexpedient operative treatment of certain malformations of toes not influencing the foot function.
