Various surgical techniques are used for toe macrodactyly, including amputation, debulking, and epi- physiodesis. Herein, we present a case of a six-year-old patient with a second toe macrodactyly who was successfully treated with a two- stage operation over a seven-year period. We initially performed an ostectomy of the middle phalanx with a fusion of the proximal and distal phalanges and then performed a soft tissue debulking procedure
