BACKGROUND: @entity34263 is a @entity600 characterized by the presence of clefts in the feet accompanied by @entity3894 and @entity509 of the phalanges and metatarsals. It is a rare @entity74 with an incidence of 1:90,000-100,000 live births and it is not linked to sex. Its genetic pattern is autosomal dominant with a variable genetic penetrance. Clinical diagnosis is made at birth, however it can be prenatal through ultrasound during the first trimester. Management of ectrodactyly includes both surgical and non-surgical treatment. METHODS: We reviewed the archive of medical histories from January 2005 to January 2010, we included all @entity1 with an ectrodactyly diagnosis. We found two @entity1 who were treated surgically and were followed-up for three years. RESULTS: The long term evolution was favorable, allowing the @entity1 to wear shoes and walk. There were no recurrences or complications observed. The final results were good according to the Tani et al scale. DISCUSSION: According to our medium and long term results in the management of these two cases of ectrodactyly, we recommend the combination of conservative orthopedic treatment as preparation for surgery and the final resolution with closure of the cleft. The surgical treatment performed and appropriate postoperative management allowed the @entity1 to wear shoes, to improve function and appearance in both cases.
