A couple of news stories over the last week have highlighted children at the Shriners Hospital and St Louis Childrens Hospital. The first child is a Shriners Hospital patient and a part of a great family. Mom and all three children have thumb anomalies, although each individual is a bit different. We have been able to successfully perform reconstructive surgery for each. Shriners News Story
The second story is on a 12 year old transferred to St Louis Childrens Hospital from Wichita Kansas after a severe trauma, a near complete amputation of the hand. St Louis Post Dispatch Story
