In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare two surgical techniques used for skin coverage after surgical correction of camptodactyly, a condition in which one or more fingers remain bent and cannot be fully straightened. The study will include children and adolescents with camptodactyly who have a proximal interphalangeal joint flexion contracture of 30 degrees or more and an indication for surgical treatment. The main question the study aims to answer is: \- Does a radial longitudinal flap provide better gain and maintenance of finger extension six months after surgery compared with a full-thickness skin graft? The study will also evaluate: * Movement of the affected finger; * Recurrence of the deformity; * Surgical complications; * Hand function; * Patient and/or parent or caregiver satisfaction; * Adherence to rehabilitation and nighttime splint use; * Overall surgic
