Dupuytren Foundation
Here are links to two recently published round table discussions by experts in the field of Dupuytren's. They highlight the current challenges both surgeons and their patients face with Dupuytren's disease and provide insight into future efforts to develop a biological cure.

You might need to cut and paste on the above links. The first one is excellent and detailed and includes discussion by Dr. Eaton, one of the top experts in the field.

Luba,

I also picked up the Dupuytren Foundation posting on Facebook. I had copied the links and was going to post and found that you had already posted it today. Really great information! I highly recommend the articles found in the links.

If others are on Facebook, I suggest going from Facebook to International Dupuytren Society and selecting "Like" so that it goes to your Facebook profile. You will get updates like Luba posted. It also spreads the word to others about Dupuytren society. Maybe it will get information to others who don't know where to turn for discussion and information.
