An Unusual Preaxial Polydactyly of the Foot; a Case Report

Abstract

Polydactyly is a commonly seen disorder. It can be seen as part of a syndrome or isolated deformity. Most commonly affects hand, foot or both but the presence of extra digit in only one foot is a very rare condition. We here present a very rare case of preaxial polydactyly of the foot with incomplete tarsal duplication, an accessory anterior tibialis tendon and without any flexor or extensor tendons in a 1-year-old male. The extra digit was removed successfully and the accessory anterior tibial tendon was repaired to the medial cuneiform. The purpose of this report was to discuss our results and to take attention to this rare presentation of polydactyly.
