The Mean

220 operations in 211 hands in 160 consecutive patients suffering from Dupuytren’s contracture were performed from 1976 through 1984 at the Kuopio University Central Hospital in Finland. 179 operations were carried out as day cases. The mean follow-up was 3.2 years. Sub-total fasciectomy resulted in good immediate and long-term improvement in 86% of patients. The recurrence rate was 27%. Surgical treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture was well-suited to day surgery. A properly planned follow-up programme is suggested because of the relatively high rate of recurrence, which usually appeared within two years after operation.

Dupuytren's Contracture

We reviewed ten hands in nine patients who had enzymatic fasciotomy for Dupuytren’s contracture, with an average follow-up of 6.5 years. While all patients were initially satisfied with the results, the disease recurred quite rapidly to pre-operative levels in seven patients over the subsequent two to three years.

AbstractNeurobiology-based interventions for mental diseases and searches for useful biomarkers of treatment response have largely failed. Clinical trials should assess interventions related to environmental and social stressors, with long-term follow-up; social rather than biological endpoints; personalized outcomes; and suitable cluster, adaptive, and n-of-1 designs. Labor, education, financial, and other social/political decisions should be evaluated for their impacts on mental disease.
