Abstract
As minimally invasive options for treatment of Dupuytren contractures become increasingly widespread, it is important that the evidence is carefully evaluated and patients are informed of the risks and benefits of the options available. The authors advocate a shared decision-making process, using evidence-based medicine, to guide patients in their treatment choices. In this article, the authors present their thoughtful approach to selecting the appropriate Dupuytren treatment of patients, along with detailed, practical technical tips to avoid complications during the execution of these interventions; both collagenase injection and limited fasciectomy techniques are described in detail.
