Question

When is the most appropriate time to undergo surgery for congenital polydactyly and syndactyly, and what is the approximate cost?

Answer

Generally, surgery for congenital polydactyly and syndactyly is recommended to be performed between the ages of 2 to 5, as the risk of surgery is lower and recovery is faster during this period. The cost of surgery may vary depending on the region, hospital grade, and complexity of the case, so it is advisable to consult with a professional physician for accurate information. Additionally, syndactyly correction surgery usually does not result in severe complications, and the earlier the surgery, the better the child can adapt to the changes after surgery.
