Treatment: Dupuytren and Ledderhose surgery where?
How can I find a good hand surgeon?
There is expertise in hand surgery worldwide and if you are considering surgery you probably can find a renowned hospital or physician not too far away. Because hand (and foot) surgery is very delicate, we believe it is worth looking for an experienced, skillful team. Key are recommendations, ratings and – more objective – the number of performed Dupuytren hand surgeries per year (see below) . Unfortunately, we cannot provide recommendations because there are too many good surgeons and we can’t do quality assurance.
If patients wish to communicate their experience in our forum, they are very welcome! If you are looking for a recommendation, why not ask in our forum or talk to patients who already had hand surgery? A simple but good criterion is experience; clinics performing Dupuytren surgery often typically show better results than those with just occasional Dupuytren surgery.
How about foot surgery?
Foot surgery is probably the last resort for Ledderhose disease because it suffers from a high recuurrence probability. We suggest to first familiarize yourself with other treatment options for Ledderhose .
