Abstract
Polydactyly is a fairly common congenital foot deformity. Treatment may include simple shoe modification or surgical intervention. Careful preoperative planning must be undertaken with each patient because of the uniqueness of each individual case. A case of type A postaxial polydactyly was presented with a brief review of classification, etiology, and treatment.
