Abstract:
Madelung deformity remains a fascinating yet unresolved challenge. There is an increasing awareness for early diagnosis by healthcare providers with improvement in diagnostic modalities, however, the exact mechanisms for the development of the deformity have still to be clarified. While some corrective procedures have been described to effectively address an established deformity, the existing literature lacks clear and evidence-based treatment guidelines on how to proceed in daily practice. This review article aims to summarize the current best evidence on this topic, including particular areas of controversy and areas with need for future research.
