A Case of Polydactylism (Type II) and Contracted Flexor Tendon in a Calf

Öz

Polydactyly is an abnormality defined by the presence of one or more extra digits. Polydactyly may occur alone or in association with other congenital defects. Polydactyly is easily diagnosed by clinical examination. X-rays are used to identify possible bony abnormalities. A 3 days old Montafon crossbred calf was brought to our hospital with the complaint of extra digit on the left forelimb and inability to extend the same leg. The patient could stand up with three legs but had difficulty in walking. As a follow-up of clinical and radiologic examinations, a diagnosis of unilateral forelimb Type II polydactyly and arqure was made. The decision was made to operate on the patient to prevent a loss of productivity in the future. The extra digit was removed and Z tenotomy was performed for flexor tendon contracture. In conclusion, we describe a case of type II polydactyly and flexor tendon contracture of the calf which was successfully corrected surgically.
