- Flexion contractures in digits
- Pathologic thickening and proliferation of the fascial elements
- Contractures of the metacarpophalangeal joints of >30° and fixed contractures of the proximal interphalangeal joints require intervention
- Collagenase injections significantly reduced contractures and improved range of motion in affected joints
- Needle aponeurotomy has compared favorably to traditional fasciectomy in terms of residual extension deficit and overall hand function
- Recurrence after surgery -0% to 71%
