Pfeiffer Sydrome: Physical Traits
The Hands and Feet:
With Pfeiffer syndrome, the thumbs and the big toes are usually wider
than normal. This trait does not require any treatment. Although it is
rare, there may also be fusion of the fingers or toes, called syndactyly.
I believe that syndactylies need to be separated and this is best done
at experienced centers. It can also be coordinated with skull surgery,
or other operations, in order to reduce the total number of operations.
