Dupuytren’s Disease is a chronic proliferative fibromatosis of the palmar fascias that affects predominantly males of over 50. First signs are nodules and skin pits in the palm of hand. These may progress into cords that ultimately may contract and obstruct extension of the fingers.

Genetics of Dupuytren's disease
Joint Bone Spine, 2012Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a progressive fibrosis of the palmar fascia characterized by the formation of a nodule, which evolves into a cord. DD is the most common hereditary disease of the connective tissue preferentially affecting Caucasoids originating from Northern Europe.

Histologically, Dupuytren’s disease has been compared to the process of neoplasia because of fibroblast proliferation, recurrence, chromosomal abnormalities and antigenic profiles. However, a comparison of Dupuytren’s tissue with the granulation tissue formed in wound healing could be more valid.

Dupuytren's disease is a nonmalignant fibroproliferative disease that causes progressive and permanent contracture of the palmar fascia with subsequent flexion contracture of the digits. Although the exact etiopathology in the development of Dupuytren's disease is unknown, certain familial, racial, and physiologic factors have been determined.

Dupuytren’s disease is a benign contractile disorder of the hand. The condition commonly affects older men of Celtic descent. Although fibroproliferation and collagen alteration play a role in its etiology, defining a cause remains elusive. Nonoperative intervention for advanced disease has shown only short-term benefit. Therefore, open fasciectomy has

Abstract Dupuytren's disease is a common condition of the hand found in mature individuals, usually of Northern European extraction. It causes functional impairment through the development of flexion contractures of the fingers, generally on the ulnar side of the hand. Its cause is disputed but is now thought to have a genetic origin. Surgery is used

A previously undescribed lesion of Dupuytren's disease is presented. Between the level of the proximal interphalangeal joint and that of the distal interphalangeal joint, the extensor tendon expansion was found to be involved in an actively contracting nodule of Dupuytren's disease. Resection of this nodule restored full extensor tendon excursion.

The palmar fascia (or aponeurosis) is composed of longitudinal and transverse fibers, which are located mainly in the superficial and deep portions, respectively [1] (Fig. 13.1). Dupuytren’s disease is characterized by nodular thickening and variable retraction of the palmar fascia.
