[2] Although most finger fractures are easy to treat, failing to deal with a fracture appropriately may result in long-term pain and disability.

Rare, around 20 families worldwide are known to have the disorder to medical literature. Tibial hemimelia-polysyndactyly-triphalangeal thumb syndrome is a rare genetic limb malformation syndrome which is characterized by thumb triphalangy, polysyndactyly of the hand and foot, and hypoplasia/aplasia of the tibia bone.
