A member asked:
Are there any treatments for hypoplasia of the middle phalanx & joint of the 5th digit ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends on the case findings. Many of these are minor. When the feature does not interfere with the function of the hand it is usually left alone. When needed a hand surgeon can operate to improve alignment.
