Abstract
The acoustic anisotropy of the skin was studied in healthy children and adults, in patients with a congenitally short extremity or hand syndactyly, and in healthy patients who had their lower extremities lengthened for cosmetic purposes. The age of the subjects varied between 6 and 39 years. In healthy individuals of different ages, the acoustic anisotropy of the skin of the extremities was low. Its character changed after dosed traction of all structures of an extremity segment. A relation between the transition of investing tissue to the oriented and stressed–deformed state and the direction of the traction vector was established.
