A Retrospective Review of Patient-reported Outcomes after Postaxial Polydactyly Ligation and Surgical Excision.

Background: Interventions for type B postaxial polydactyly include suture ligation and surgical excision, yet there is a paucity of literature comparing the outcomes of these procedures. This study sought to compare patient-reported long-term outcomes of postaxial digit excision.

Methods: A six-question survey was distributed from January 2021 to March 2022 to patients who underwent treatment for type B postaxial polydactyly at a single pediatric institution from 2010 to 2016.
