Dermofasciectomy

Hi all,
I am a 68 year old female with DD for 30 years. Have had radiation, na, xiaflex, 3 fasciotomies. Also have LD disease which responded nicely to radiation. I think it’s time for a Dermofasciectomy. I live in NY and Fl but am willing to travel for treatment. My current surgeon does not perform this procedure. Would appreciate any info.
Thanks,
Susan

Re: Dermofasciectomy

Hi

We have a list of recommended NA surgeons on the website, some also do open hand surgery.
I would start by calling Dr Gary Pess to see who he would recommend if not himself, or one of the Drs listed for Florida.

Is there a difference in Dermofasciectomy and just Faciectomy?

Thanks

Dermofasciectomy usually refers to those cases where the (some) overlying skin is removed and replaced by a skin graft. A surgeon would advise the necessity for a particular case, but it is likely used for more severe cases where more tissue is removed to prevent recurrence.
