Phoenix Hand Surgery specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of Dupuytren’s disease, providing expert care to alleviate symptoms and restore hand function. Dupuytren’s disease, also known as Dupuytren’s contracture, is a condition that affects the connective tissue under the skin of the palm, causing the fingers to bend towards the palm and making it difficult to straighten them. If you’re experiencing these symptoms, our skilled orthopedic surgeons are here to help you find relief and improve your quality of life.
What is Dupuytren’s Disease?
Dupuytren’s disease is a progressive condition where the fascia, a layer of connective tissue in the palm, thickens and tightens over time. This can cause the fingers, most commonly the ring and little fingers, to be drawn into a bent position, impairing hand function.
Our Dupuytren’s Disease Treatment Services
At Phoenix Hand Surgery, we offer a range of treatments tailored to the severity of your condition:
Non-Surgical Treatments:
- Needle Aponeurotomy: A minimally invasive procedure where a needle is used to break the cords of tissue causing finger contraction.
- Enzyme Injections: Injecting collagenase into the cord of tissue to weaken and eventually dissolve it, allowing the fingers to straighten.
Surgical Treatments:
- Fasciotomy: Surgical cutting of the thickened fascia to release the contracted fingers.
- Subtotal Palmar Fasciectomy: Removing the affected fascia to restore finger movement and reduce the risk of recurrence.
