Abstract (english)
Dupuytren’s disease predominantly occurs among Europeans, with higher reported prevalence in Northern than in Mediterranean European countries. We evaluated the recurrence and extension rates among Caucasian patients from Primorsko-goranska County in Croatia who underwent partial fasciectomy as treatment for Dupuytren’s disease. Furthermore, we investigated the influence of diathesis factors on disease progression. Recurrent disease was observed in 68 out of 93 patients (73%). There where 48 (52%) patients with extension of the disease. Differences were found between patients with recurrent disease and those without recurrence regarding age at onset, age at operation and duration of disease. We compared patients younger and older than 50 years at disease onset, and found that older patients had a significantly higher recurrence rate. Characteristics of our patients fit into the picture of typical Dupuytren’s disease except for the influence of early age at onset. Among our patients late age at onset proved to be a diathesis factor.
