We present the case of an 18-year-old woman with a shortened right index finger. The digit was stabilized and lengthened a total of 18 mm by external fixation and iliac bone grafting. A distal interphalangeal fixed flexion deformity of 60 degrees was corrected with external fixation and intermedullary wiring.
