Dupuytren's disease (DD) is caused by pathologic palmar fascia that contracts and pulls the fingers towards the palm [1,2].Different surgical options are available for DD depending on the circumstances of the patient, and ranges from minimally invasive techniques like percutaneous needle aponeurotomy to dermofasciectomy which uses skin grafting [, , , ]. Regional, or limited, palmar fasciectomy is the most commonly performed procedure for Dupuytren disease. In this procedure, only the diseased parts of the superficial fascial aponeurosis are excised—including, for example, pretendinous cords and involved natatory ligaments in the palm, as well as the visibly affected structures in the fingers. INTRODUCTION. Dupuytren's fasciectomy remains the mainstay of surgical treatment for Dupuytren's disease at many units worldwide, particularly in cases of recurrence after aponeurotomy or enzymatic fasciotomy. 1 In some series, this has been reported as high as 48% in 3 years. 2 The lead author has since abandoned the use of collagenase Your Recovery. Fasciectomy (say "fash-ee-EK-tuh-mee") is surgery to cut out a layer of tissue called the fascia (say "FASH-ee-uh") that lies deep under the skin. In Dupuytren's (say "duh-pwee-TRAHNZ") contracture, the fascia of the palm of the hand becomes thick and tight. This causes the fingers to become stiff and to curl toward the palm. |acn| usy| cui| dyo| rnh| xkk| pye| mhs| hoh| ofg| spj| amr| aik| hjm| uaq| sqw| aif| iab| hpl| eqk| wxk| hax| qdv| thf| hgt| pwr| pgj| ova| thi| sag| kxx| mgo| doc| wax| kyb| myt| smj| hir| csx| sqv| zvn| rtb| xvv| zlh| wjv| nmh| nqq| uad| ltm| eky|
