ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Polybrachysyndactyly is the combination of malformations and is considered a congenital anomaly that is very difficult to treat. In addition to presenting as a disabling entity, it is a reason for little acceptance under the aesthetic standards established by society. CASE PRESENTATION 6-year-old male patient with polybrachysyndactyly in all 4 extremities. The parents rejected surgery at a younger age, however, the social/aesthetic pressure exerted on the patient at school and the child's inability to perform activities in a common way, motivated them to make a new decision. CLINICAL

DISCUSSION:

Different surgical techniques were used on all four extremities. A soft tissue technique was performed on the pinkies of both feet and ray cuts to correct syndactyly of both thumbs of the feet and middle fingers of both hands, and excision. Extirpations were obtained one thumb of the right foot, one thumb of the left foot and two middle fingers (one of each hand). He was discharged after recovery from surgery.

CONCLUSION:

Cases of polysyndactyly are considered extremely rare, the first thing to evaluate is the presence of other signs that could be part of a syndromic association in order to proceed with surgical intervention that allows the patient to lead a life as far away from aesthetic stigmas that could damage his mental health.
