Description
Seth and co-authors present a 2026 review of Dupuytren's disease striking the fingertip joint. The disease usually cords the palm and the nearer finger joints; the far joint is a rare site. The team searched three databases for case reports and small series through mid-2025. Nine papers covering thirteen patients qualified.
Every patient was male, aged twenty-five to seventy-nine. The little finger took ten of the thirteen cases. Surgery to cut the cord served eleven patients, while an enzyme injection treated two. Correction results, complications, and recurrence were drawn from the reports. The authors assemble the scattered record so hand surgeons can counsel patients with this uncommon pattern.
