Question
The child was born with a congenital absence of the ring and small fingers on the right hand, with the thumb and index finger fused together. The family is inquiring about treatment methods.
Answer
The treatment for congenital finger absence varies depending on the condition and age of the patient. Currently, there is no particularly effective treatment method in medicine, and the success rate of allograft transplantation is extremely low and prone to rejection reactions. It is recommended to consult a local specialized hand and foot microsurgical hospital to obtain the best treatment advice. In addition, daily care is also very important, and attention should be paid to protect the affected area, maintain a reasonable diet, and reduce the chance of illness.
