Purpose: Dupuytren disease can be managed with an injection of collagenase Clostridium histolyticum enzyme followed by manual manipulation. Although the recommended time from injection to manipulation is 24-72 hours, patient and physician schedules may not accommodate this time frame. Therefore, we sought to study the impact of time from injection to manipulation on outcomes and complications of collagenase injection.
Methods: We performed a review of 309 patients who underwent an injection of collagenase Clostridium histolyticum for Dupuytren disease with manipulation at two, five, or seven days after injection. We compared preinjection and postinjection contracture angles as well as frequency of skin tears and tendon ruptures.
Results: Of the 309 patients, 207 underwent manipulation at two days, 32 at five days, and 70 at seven days. Patients had similar preinjection contracture angles. All patients demonstrated improvement in contracture after manipulation. Rates of skin tears and tendon ruptures were similar in all three groups. Significant predictors of complications included number of cords injected and history of previous collagenase injection, but not history of previous Dupuytren diagnosis.
Conclusions: Although collagenase injection for Dupuytren disease is typically performed with plans for manipulation at 24-72 hours, postinjection manipulation could be performed as late as seven days without adversely affecting the frequency of skin and tendon complications.

Prognosis Associated with Complete Pathological Response Following Neoadjuvant Treatment for PancreaTic AdenOcarciNOma in the FOFLIRINOX Era: the Multicenter TONO Study.

Background: The use of multiagent FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy for pancreatic adenocarcinoma in a neoadjuvant setting has been associated with an increased rate of complete pathological response (CPR) after surgery. This study investigated the long-term outcomes of patients with CPR in a multicenter setting to identify prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS).
Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined biopsy-proven pancreatic adenocarcinomas with CPR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy and surgery, between January 2006 and December 2023 across 22 French and 2 Belgian centers.

Background: The palmar aponeurosis is extremely adherent to the skin above it. Many of the pre-tendinous coarse fibers enter the dermis at an angle, not just in the palmar creases but also throughout the palm. It's difficult to distinguish whether Dupuytren's illness starts in the skin's dermis or the palmar aponeurosis since the skin adheres so closely to the palmar fascia.

The most common treatments have high rates of complications and early recurrence. Dupuytren lacks a staging biomarker profile to develop preventive therapeutics to improve long-term outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- Heavily calcified coronary artery disease complicates percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), requiring advanced techniques like cutting balloons (CB), which need standardization for better effectiveness.
- The study presents the RODIN-CUT technique, which involves sequential CB inflations guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to improve plaque modification and stent expansion in difficult cases.
- Results indicate that RODIN-CUT achieved high procedural success rates and minimal complications, suggesting it could be a simple and cost-effective method for treating calcified lesions, though larger studies are needed to confirm its validity.
Adjuvant steroid to percutaneous needle fasciotomy for Dupuytren's contracture. An RCT study protocol.

Introduction: Percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) is a non-invasive treatment option for finger flexion contractures caused by Dupuytren's disease. Variations in PNF techniques include the use of corticosteroid injection. In the presented randomised controlled trial, we compare the efficacy of PNF +/- corticosteroid injection in terms of reducing the recurrence rate.
