Popis: | On the basis of the observation of a rare case of lipomatous macrodactyly of the foot associated with syndactyly in a young child, the authors analyze the anatomopathologic and therapeutic aspects of the pathology and report the data found in the literature. This disease initially requires careful surveillance of its progression, and use of correct footwear. Surgery is indicated when deformity achieves unacceptable values, both functional and cosmetic, in early childhood. |
