Özet

Syndactyly repair rarely end up with a severe ischemia complication. Meticulous dissection of the vascular pedicles and avoiding tight skin closure are the key points of preventing the complication. We represent here a case with ischemia complication after syndactyly repair on the postoperative second day. The suspected reason of this late ischemia complication is Raynaud's disease. By the help of the case, hand surgery is discussed as a trigger cause of Raynaud's disease ischemic attack. Also the possibility of overlap ischemic effect of the disease and hand surgery is discussed.
