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.

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is one of the common rheumatic diseases in pediatrics.

Introduction: Breast reconstruction is most commonly performed using implant-based reconstruction. Patients with subpectoral implant placement with or without latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle coverage can experience muscle pain and animation deformity. Due to minimal literature describing the use of botulinum toxin (BTX-A) treatment for these side effects from implant-based reconstruction, we report our outcomes.
