Dupuytren\u27s Disease

Abstract

Dupuytren\u27s disease (DD) is a chronic condition in which fibrosis of tissue beneath the palm of the hand occurs. Causes and mechanisms of this disease\u27s development are still not entirely understood. However, symptoms and the negative impact on individuals\u27 quality of life are evident. While existing therapies for DD have been established to prevent and slow its progression, further research is needed to effectively address it on a wider scale
