PURPOSE: To investigate the functional and aesthetic outcomes in a cohort with pollicizations performed due to congenital anomalies in our hospital.
METHODS: From 1987 to 2016, we performed pollicizations in 32 hands of children aged 1 to 8 years (median, 2 years). We followed-up on 31 of the hands from 1 to 31 years (median, 10 years) after the procedure. The participants and their caregivers self-assessed their function and appearance with visual analogue scales and patient-reported outcome measures (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Pediatric Upper Extremity; the short version of the Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand Outcome Measure; and EQ-5D-3L). We examined the hands with regard to motion, strength, sensitivity, and function.
RESULTS: There were 2 complications and 6 reoperations. Participants with mild anomalies (radial longitudinal deficiency Bayne type N/0 to 2) had better subjective and objective hand function than participants with severe anomalies (radial longitudinal deficiency Bayne type 3-4, ulnar dimelia, 5-finger hand). Hands with preoperatively near-normal index fingers had, in most cases, good thumb opposition and pinch, and hands in both groups benefited from the creation of a cylinder grip. Grip and pinch strength were lower than reported in cohort studies where an additional opponensplasty had been performed.
CONCLUSIONS: Hands with severe congenital anomalies also benefited from the procedure. We recommend a simplified follow-up program to identify cases where additional surgeries to enhance strength should be considered during growth of the child.
TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic IV.
