摘要
Simultaneous correction of the alignment and the shortening of the deformed little finger in congenital synostosis of the fourth and fifth metacarpals was accomplished by insertion of a wedge-shaped bone block harvested from the fusion site following transverse osteotomy of the fifth metacarpal. Correction can be performed simply and successfully without morbidity of the donor site when this technique is applied to suitable patients.
