Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates a new surgical approach for patients diagnosed with trigger finger who also have a Dupuytren's cord. The focus is on minimizing complications and scarring that can arise from traditional surgical methods. By excising the pretendinous cord, the study aims to alleviate tension and reduce the risk of adverse outcomes such as thickened scars and loss of motion. Patients who have opted for surgery after failing non-operative treatments will be included in the study.
