What is hexadactyly?
Hexadactyly is a congenital malformation that results in the presence of an extra digit on the hand or leg. This additional digit may vary in size and functionality; Sometimes it is slightly more than a skin mark, while in other cases foreign digits are fully functional. Most people remove these extra digits surgically, although they are generally quite harmless, because the fingers and fingers are considered to be aesthetically displeasure and in some cultures are superstitious faith. This form is by far the most common. Hexadactyly, which represents itself on the other side of the hand or leg, near the thumb or large toes, is called radial hexadakt. Very rarely, extra finger or tip can grow between normal fingers and fingers, in which case the patient is hexadact.coz literally means "many fingers". Polydactyly is particularly common in some cat communities and some cats were documented with up to eight fingers on each leg!
When two inches grow on one side, it's known as preliminary afterLydactyly and is very unusual. In several rare cases, people were born with two working inch on the one hand, which may have interesting consequences for manual dexterity.
In many cases, hexadactyly is simply the result of a random mutation. Except for extra digits, the patient should have no other problems. In other cases, this condition may be associated with other, more serious health conditions that require more extensive medical care. In general, parents are warned of these conditions due to prenatal testing. Ultrasound can also detect hexadactyly, in which case parents may decide to promote further renutesting the TAL to determine the cause of the unusual number of fingers and fingers.
In most cases, hexadactyly is treated shortly after birth, especially if the next digit contains no bones. In other cases, parents may decide to let hexadactyles intact intact tothe child allowed the decision later, especially if the next digit seems to be fully functional. While most people consider hexadacts to be a "congenital defect", which means that some people need to be corrected, some people enjoy their six -year existence.
