  • Title: Adequate fasciectomy and the use of full-thickness skin gussets in the treatment of Dupuytren's contracture.
    Author: Crockett JE.
    Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 1980 May; 62(3):230-1. PubMed ID: 6994572.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of Dupuytren's contracture is discussed. Limited excision of fibrous tissue, the amount removed being, however, adequate to allow extension of the contracted joints and skin release, is recommended, the resulting skin deficiencies being filled with full-thickness gussets of forearm skin.
