Kinesitherapy Plus Osteopathy After Surgery for Dupuytren Disease

Sponsor: Clinique Bizet

Summary

This randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluates whether adding targeted osteopathy to physiotherapy improves recovery after open surgery for Dupuytren disease. Patients who have undergone their first open fasciectomy for Dupuytren disease will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Both groups will receive physiotherapy. One group will additionally receive a targeted osteopathy session, while the other group will receive a sham osteopathy session. The main objective is to evaluate recovery of extension of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the operated finger. Secondary outcomes include hand function, extension of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints, grip strength, scar vascularization, quality of life, scar adherence, and postoperative pain. The study will include 50 adult patients. Participants will be followed for 12 weeks, with assessments at 1, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after the start of treatment.
