Abstract

A combination procedure was performed on the medial two toes in a 6-month-old child with preaxial polydactyly of the left foot. The first toe had the appearance of a cosmetically intact great toe, but the second toe had better function. A method to combine the advantages of these two toes was therefore applied, with favorable results seen at 1.5 years after surgery.
