Abstract

Objective: Thumb polydactyly is an uncommon Type of congenital malformation. For the surgical treatment of this deformity, which is rarely encountered in clinical practice, we used the Bilhaut-Cloquet technique. In this study, we planned to determine the problems likely to be encountered during the observation and evaluation of the patients treated using the Bilhaut-Cloqet technique due to preaxial polydactyly.
