As sufferers of Dupuytren’s disease know all too well, this is a very debilitating condition of the hands where your fingers contract over time and you develop nodules and cords in your palm and fingers. If not treated, the fingers may end up unable to straighten, causing decreased hand function which in turn makes many of your daily activities difficult or even impossible.
If you have been diagnosed with Dupuytren’s, Dr Edinburg and his team are experts at helping you regain your hand function and quality of life. With the latest techniques they will surgically release the tissue that is causing the contraction, allowing you to rediscover the normal, pain-free movement you need to enjoy life to the full. As with all our procedures, your comfort and best outcome is our top priority.
You should consider surgery if your condition is becoming debilitating and other treatments, such as stretching and physical therapy, are not helping. Delaying surgery until you are unable to use your hands can make surgery and recovery more difficult.
Dupuytren’s procedures depend on the procedure and the number of fingers affected.
Yes, you would normally be treated in hospital under general anaesthetic.
Depending on the extent of treatment required, you would normally recover fully in two to six weeks. Dr Edinburg will also prescribe physiotherapy as a part of your treatment after surgery.
While Dupuytren’s surgery can have excellent results in relation to restoring your hand movement, it can’t cure the disease. You may therefore need surgery again at a later date.
Cost will depend on the method and extent of surgery and usually attracts Medicare and Health fund rebates. We will assist you in working out your financial and medical information when you have consulted with Dr Edinburg.
