Introduction: Mirror hand syndrome is a very rare congenital deformity, also called cubital dimelia, characterized by the absence of the thumb, as well as the duplication of the fingers in a symmetrical image and, in some cases, with a duplication of the bones of the forearm.
Methods: The current treatment consists of a thumb reconstruction through thumb pollicization, although there are alternatives such as rotating osteotomy, syndactylization or conservative treatment. In this article we present the case of a girl with a non-classic bilateral mirror hand, the clinical and radiological findings, the bilateral surgical technique in two surgical times with six months of difference and two years follow-up.
