Estoy traduciendo unos informes médicos de un niño de 6 meses de edad que tiene mano hendida.
"Al examen físico, luce en buenas condiciones generales.
M.S.D: hendidura en V; dedos cubitales presente; pulgar duplicado **con membrana interpuesta**; prensión presente
M.S.I: hendidura en V, polidacticlia izquierda Wassel I; II y V rayo presente; prensión presente
IDX: Mano hendida típica bilateral
Polisindactilia pulgar derecho
Sindactilia de pulgar izquierda"
MSD = miembro superior derecho; MSI = miembro superior izquierdo.
Pensé en "webbed", pero no encuentro referencias.
Un millón de gracias nuevamente

with interdigital webbing
I just googled medical terminology for webbed fingers.
Since all the source document says is that there is an interposed membrane involving the thumb, I don't want to assume the thumb is "fused" with another digit because of this sentence from Wikipedia:
"Interdigital webbing is not to be confused with syndactyly, which is a fusing of digits and occurs rarely in humans."

I believe they are referring to webbing here.
¿Qué es la duplicación del pulgar?
Los bebés con duplicación del pulgar (o polidactilia del pulgar) nacen con un pulgar de más en una o ambas manos. Los dos pulgares de una mano pueden estar fusionados entre sí o unidos por una membrana.

What Is Thumb Duplication?
Babies with thumb duplication (or thumb polydactyly) are born with an extra thumb on one or both hands. The two thumbs on one hand can be joined or webbed together.

fused together with an interposed membrane
I would describe this as: two thumbs fused together with an interposed membrane.
Synarthrosis (articulation) is expressive of the fixed form of joint in which the bones are immovably connected with each other.
It is the latter connexion which gives rise to the great difficulty sometimes experienced… this interposed membrane as a sutural cartilage.

What is thumb duplication?
Thumb duplication is a congenital condition, which means that your baby was born with it. Children with thumb duplication have two thumbs on one hand. The thumbs may be separate or appear fused together. It is not painful and usually only affects one hand.
How is thumb duplication diagnosed?
A split thumb can sometimes be seen during a prenatal ultrasound. If not detected during pregnancy, the condition is visible at birth. Your baby will have x-rays at some point to see the structure of their thumbs and to decide on treatment.
How is thumb duplication treated?
Thumb duplication is treated with surgery to create a single, functioning thumb. This will probably happen when your child is about 1 to 2 years old. Surgery to correct thumb duplication can be complex. Simply removing the extra thumb is not usually enough. Each of the split thumbs has elements that need to be combined to recreate one fully working thumb.

Yes, I know Liz! Strictly speaking, it would be two thumbs with an interposed membrane. However, researching about this membrane, they seem to be fused together. As you can see in the last link, the thumbs may be separate or fused together.

Discussion
Wikipedia again:
"Syndactyly can be simple or complex.
In simple syndactyly, adjacent fingers or toes are joined by soft tissue.
In complex syndactyly, the bones of adjacent digits are fused. The kangaroo exhibits complex syndactyly."
HOWEVER: I also found a very scholarly reference that can back up Stuart and Aida's translation (from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5732663/):
"Syndactyly (ie, digit fusion, typically via webbing) is a common inherited and clinically heterogeneous malformation.1"
That sentence suggests that you can say digits are "fused" in either case - whether they are fused at the bone or just connected with a membrane of skin. But now that I think about it, I think Stuart and Aida's translation is clear enough that they are fused via the membrane (which is all the information given in the source, that we know of).
