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

Is there a difference in Dermofasciectomy and just Faciectomy?
Thanks KG

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.
