We at the Hand and Reconstructive Microsurgery Program at Children's Hospital Boston pride ourselves on our expertise and management of congenital and acquired hand deformities. Combining training in adult and pediatric orthopedics, hand surgery, plastic surgery, and microsurgery allows our surgeons to provide a comprehensive level of care unmatched in most other hospital settings.

On a typical day in the Hand and Reconstructive Microsurgery Program we see patients with a host of unique conditions including (but not limited to): fused or extra digits, club hand, macrodactyly (overgrowth of the hand and/or fingers), vascular malformations, arthritic conditions, fractures, strains and sprains, and traumatic injuries. We would be happy to meet with you and discuss the best course of care for your child's unique situation.
