Percutaneous Aponeurotomy in the Treatment of Dupuytren's Disease (APADUP)

The efficiency of percutaneous aponeurotomy in the treatment of Dupuytrens disease is well known. However, the duration of the clinical improvement after aponeurotomy is not well known.

This study aims primarily at measuring the incidence rate of local relapse of Dupuytrens-induced finger flessum, within two years following treatment by percutaneous aponeurotomy in Dupuytrens.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Percutaneous aponeurotomy
Treatment of Dupuytrens-induced finger flessum using percutaneous aponeurotomy
The finger(s) with limited extension due to Dupuytrens disease and for which the patient desires treatment, will be treated by fine-needle percutaneous aponeurotomy under local anesthesia (outpatient procedure). This procedure is already routinely used in clinical practice ; our study aims at better describing the time-sustainability of its benefits.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Frequency of local relapse at 24 months
Time Frame: 24 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
the statistical unit is the finger treated by aponeurotomy (we expect an average of 2 fingers treated for one patient included). Local relapse is defined as the recurrence of a finger flessum superior by 20° to the articular range initially obtained after aponeurotomy
24 months after treatment by aponeurotomy

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Primary success rate of aponeurotomy
Time Frame: 3 months after treatment
the statistical unit is the finger treated by aponeurotomy (we expect an average of 2 fingers treated for one patient included). Complete success is defined as a finger flessum inferior to 5°
3 months after treatment
Frequency of local relapse at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
12 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
Frequency of local relapse at 36 months
Time Frame: 36 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
36 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
Frequency of local relapse at 48 months
Time Frame: 48 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
48 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
Frequency of local relapse at 60 months
Time Frame: 60 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
60 months after treatment by aponeurotomy
