Progression of Dupuytren’s contracture: a randomized controlled trial comparing surgery, needle fasciotomy, and collagenase injection
Surgery offers more durable results in treated fingers compared to percutaneous methods, though progression and retreatment rates in untreated fingers are similar across all treatment groups. Patients at higher risk for progression, that is, young smokers with affected little fingers, may benefit most from surgery.
