non invasive treatment

Does anyone know the name for a non invasive treatment that cuts the tissue and releases the cord without doing full surgery on the hand?

I'm a new visitor to the website and apologize if this info is already out there.

Non-Invasive Treatment for Dups.

Hi to Rachel and welcome aboard.

The technique is called Needle Aponevrotomy, N.A. for short.

t's very much discussed on this forum. Many doctors are not yet aware of its exceptional advantages over surgery for a majority of Dupuytrens sufferers, so its good to get the information out.

If you look down the main topics list to June 6th you'll find a list of the handful of M.D.s who offer N.A. in the United States.

You'll find contact information and websites listed that will give you lots of information. Plus, of course, if you read through some of the posts here you'll get "the rest of the story."

Susan
