The condition presents at two distinct time periods: one that presents at infancy (1 to 4 years) with an equal sex incidence and one that presents at adolescence (10-14 years) which occurs more commonly in girls. [fastbleep.com]

- Surgical Procedure
Other than hand or plastic surgery procedures, only seven surgical procedures were carried out. Two patients had humeral rotational osteotomies for cosmetic and functional improvement. [oandplibrary.org]
The surgical procedure when indicated consists of opening the pulley that causes the tight passage for the tendon. [columbiadoctors.org]
Surgical procedures Prosthetic devices Treatment consists of surgical procedures for polydactyly and syndactyly. [merckmanuals.com]

Generally, when there has been no surgical or medical intervention for 6 months after the last definitive surgical procedure, it can be concluded that maximum therapeutic benefit has been reached. [ssa.gov]

It may occur in isolation, possibly with autosomal dominant inheritance, or it may be part of certain genetic syndromes, including acrocallosal syndrome (with developmental delay and corpus callosum defects), Carpenter and Pfeiffer syndromes (with craniosynostosis [merckmanuals.com]
Cardiovascular
- Heart Disease
The commonly associated syndromes include: Holt Oram syndrome: Radial dysplasia is associated with congenital heart disease (usually ASD or VSD). [jcdr.net]

Workup

Laboratory studies Laboratory workup may identify genetic or other abnormalities in patients with dysmorphic features, but are not indicated in the absence of syndromic features, including most CLDs. [now.aapmr.org]
Treatment
Treatment may involve splintage in extension for upto 6 months. If conservative treatment fails or there is significant adduction contracture, release of the first web space may be indicated. [fastbleep.com]
Management and treatment Treatment depends on the severity of the condition and the associated skeletal anomalies or syndromes. Passive stretching exercises may allow extension of the wrist and elbow to a normal position. [orpha.net]
Make informed clinical choices for each patient, from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications, with new evidence-based criteria throughout. [books.google.com]
