Pollicization is the hand surgical technique wherein a thumb is made from a existing finger. Typically, this comprises of carefully relocating the forefinger to the position of the thumb in patients who are either brought into the world without a functional thumb or in patients who have lost their thumb in trauma and are not amiable to other favoured strategies for thumb reconstruction, for example, toe-to-hand moves.
