Nerve study in Dupuytren surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at tiny nerves in Dupuytren disease and whether removing them during surgery helps prevent the disease from coming back. It may help you understand if this surgical approach is right for you.

- You are scheduled to have surgery called microfasciectomy
- You do not have severe arthritis, nerve problems, or other conditions that cause finger bending

This study tests a treatment for people with Dupuytren disease who have a lump (nodule) in their palm but no finger bending yet. It aims to see if the lump can shrink and prevent the disease from getting worse.
This study looks at people with Dupuytren's disease (a condition where the fingers bend inward) who are scheduled for a needle procedure to straighten the fingers. Researchers want to track what happens after treatment to better understand the disease.
This study looks at whether a specific hand/cord procedure called aponeurectomy can lower how often Dupuytren’s disease comes back within 2 years. You might be offered surgery and then followed to see how well your symptoms and tightness improve and how often they return.
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure that uses a needle to release tight tissue in the hand, and may include a steroid injection. It aims to improve hand finger straightening for people with Dupuytren’s contracture.
This trial looks at using radiation after contracture-release surgery for people with Dupuytren’s disease. It may help prevent the hand tightening from coming back and improve hand function.
This trial checks whether wearing a night splint after a specific procedure for Dupuytren’s contracture helps keep your fingers straighter. It’s meant to reduce the chance of the hand contracting again during recovery.
