    Doodle      		Can surgery cause ledderhose ?

    I have dupuytren due to trauma. I do not have ledderhose . However I need minor foot surgery
    And am afraid to have it in case it would trigger ledderhose . Has anyone had experience
    With this??
    Thanx

    I m not a doctor but my gut instinct would be to avoid the surgery if it is minor. Many patients have noticed increased disease activity after small seemingly un related procedures...
