Introduction: Polydactyly of the foot is a congenital anomaly characterized by the appearance of all or part of one or more additional rays. Adult cases are more rare, and surgical management of the deformity is still debated.
Presentation Of Case: A 49-year-old black patient with this condition might complain of an abnormal cosmetic appearance or difficulty with footwear.
Discussion: Only a few cases of postaxial polydactyly with a partial duplication of the fifth metatarsal without a supernumerary digit have been reported.
Conclusion: The surgical indication is always retained in front of the aesthetic discomfort of the patient associated with footwear. The surgical technique must be individualized according to the deformity encountered, either by open or percutaneous approach; we find it interesting to share this unusual case in order to classify it later as a foot deformity.

Recent advancements in viral metagenomics and single-virus genomics have improved our ability to obtain the draft genomes of environmental viruses. However, these methods can introduce virus sequence contaminations into viral genomes when short, fragmented partial sequences are present in the assembled contigs. These contaminations can lead to incorrect analyses; however, practical detection tools are lacking.
