Congenital hand differences (CHD) have been estimated to occur in 10% of children born with congenital abnormalities. CHD can be classified according to their predominant abnormality using the Swanson classification. Failure of differentiation represents the most common group. Associated (nonlimb) abnormalities are common, and it is important to identify those CHD requiring systemic evaluation. Radiology is important in the diagnosis and management of CHD with plain films providing the mainstay of imaging postnatally. The management of CHD should be within a multidisciplinary environment.

Congenital hand differences (CHD) have been estimated to occur in 10% of children born with congenital abnormalities. CHD can be classified according to their predominant abnormality using the Swanson classification. Failure of differentiation represents the most common group. Associated (nonlimb) abnormalities are common, and it is important to identify those CHD requiring systemic evaluation. Radiology is important in the diagnosis and management of CHD with plain films providing the mainstay of imaging postnatally. The management of CHD should be within a multidisciplinary environment.
