Abstract
A child with triplication of the thumb is presented. Each thumb was fully developed with neurovascular bundles, flexor and extensor tendons. Although all three thumbs were triphalangeal, they shared a common metacarpal and two shared a common proximal phalanx. Since this anomaly does not fit in the existing accepted Wassel (1969) classification, a new category is suggested.
