Improvement in Grip Strength Following Percutaneous Needle Aponeurotomy for Dupuytren’s Disease: A Prospective Clinical Study
Percutaneous needle aponeurotomy (PNA) not only corrects digital contracture but also yields clinically significant improvements in grip strength, reinforcing its value as a functional outcome measure. These findings support PNA as a safe, effective first-line treatment for selected patients with Dupuytren's disease.
