Title: Microscope Assisted Surgery for Dupuytrens Disease

The traditional surgical management for Dupuytrens Disease (DD) is a limited fasciectomy.1 Surgeons will often use magnification in the form of surgical loupes to dissect out the fibrous cord from the neurovascular structures in the palm and digit. Authors have described an up to 7.8% risk of neurovascular injury in DD.2 This can be higher in recurrent disease as often the neurovascular structures are encased in scar tissue and surgical planes are hard to determine.
