The authors deal with less frequent abnormal clinical findings on the hands. Their knowledge can often help to reassure children and

their parents who are concerned about the presence of a serious disease. The authors report literature data as well as their own experience

in three case reports dealing with less common anomalies: Kirner's deformity, camptodactyly, and pachydermodactyly. In each

particular case, the aetiology, clinical and x-ray presentation, and therapeutic approaches are presented.

Keywords: children, Kirner's deformity, camptodactyly, pachydermodactyly
