Summary "The Deformities of the Fingers and Toes" by William Anderson is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on various pathological conditions that affect the fingers and toes, particularly detailing surgical diseases and deformities, while offering insights into their causes, symptoms, and treatment options. This examination is particularly relevant for surgeons and pathologists, as it addresses a group of ailments that can lead to significant pain and disability, even though they are typically not life-threatening. At the start of the book, the author introduces the topic of finger and toe deformities, emphasizing the importance of studying these conditions due to their painful and crippling effects. The introduction also elaborates on the similarities and differences in the contractions and deformities of the fingers and toes, suggesting that analyzing them together might shed light on their underlying causes. Anderson outlines various conditions, such as Dupuytren’s contraction and other congenital and acquired deformities, setting a clinical tone that prepares the reader for an in-depth discussion of anatomy, symptomatology, pathology, and the surgical approaches to treatment.
