Abstract
Clinodactyly can be produced by a longitudinal epiphyseal bracket that generates either a 'delta' or 'trapezoidal' phalanx. We present a case with a 15-year follow-up of bilateral clinodactyly of the little finger, to emphasize a 'wait-and-see' approach as self-remodelling of his phalanges occurred during growth.
