ABSTRACT

A retrospective study with 82 patients and 97 thumbs, from 1974 through 1996 at Diaz Lombardo, Shriners, Instituto Nacional de Ortopedia and ABC Hospital was done, 17 patients present polydactyly associated with triphalangeal thumb. They were classified according to Wassel and Wood. We made a modification including a new type II A, which is a metacarpal with one proximal phalange, two medial phalange and two distal phalange.
