Article Synopsis
- Camptodactyly is a condition with various clinical manifestations and no clear consensus on its causes or optimal treatments; conservative management is usually preferred, but surgery may be an option for severe cases.
- A study analyzed the outcomes of 59 pediatric patients who underwent the Malek cutaneous approach and stepwise release surgery for congenital camptodactyly that didn't respond to conservative treatment, documenting significant improvements in flexion contractures post-surgery and no reported infections.
- After an average follow-up period of 6 years, the results showed a high percentage of patients rated as having excellent to fair outcomes based on the Siegert classification for proximal interphalangeal joint extension deficits.
