Additional Treatment after Collagenase Injections and Needle Fasciotomy for Dupuytren's Disease: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Introduction  The aim of this study was to assess the rate of additional treatment after collagenase injection and needle fasciotomy, and what factors are associated with additional procedures for recurrence. Materials and Methods  We retrospectively identified 201 adult patients who underwent collagenase injection and 19 patients who underwent needle fasciotomy for Dupuytren's disease from 2012 to 2014. Outcomes included additional treatment of the same ray for either recurrence or persistence of contracture. To evaluate associated factors, we performed a bivariate analysis. Results  Additional treatment after collagenase injection for recurrence was performed in 24% of fingers at a median of 23 months (interquartile range [IQR]: 10.8-36.1) and was associated with bil
