Abstract
Secretan's disease is defined as hyperplastic, recurring hard edema of the dorsal aspect of the hand. Its etiology, pathology and treatment are unclear. Magnetic resonance images and surgical findings are presented in three patients who fit the clinical findings of Secretan's disease. Magnetic resonance imaging scans with both T-1 weighted and T-2 weighted images showed soft tissue and tendon edema in combination with diffuse peritendonous fibrosis extending to the fascia of the dorsal interosseous muscles.
