Dupuytren's contracture repair
Dupuytren's contracture causes the connective tissue that lies beneath the skin of the palm to pull together. The condition will lead to a complete contraction of one or more fingers towards the palm. The surgeon will release the contracture so that the fingers are able to move normally again.
