Abstract
Macrodactyly is a rare congenital condition in which overgrowth of one or more digits is seen. In this article, we introduce two patients with macrodactyly simplex congenita for which we used segmental excision of the distal phalanx with sparing of neurovascular bundles, eliminating the need for a secondary operation.
