Perioperative Complications Associated With Limited Surgical Fasciectomy After Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum for Dupuytren Contracture.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to determine the perioperative complication rate of surgical fasciectomy following previous treatment with collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) treatment in patients with Dupuytren disease.
methodsA retrospective review of all patients at a large health system undergoing CCH treatment and subsequent limited surgical fasciectomy for recurrence on the same digit between 2010 and 2020 was performed. Fifty-two patients with 62 affected digits met inclusion criteria, and cases were reviewed for preoperative demographics, treatment characteristics, clinical outcomes, and perioperative complications.
resultsFifty-five digits in 48 patients were treated with CCH and underwent subsequent limited surgical fasciectomy. Of all digits in the present study, 3 (6.3%) had a documented surgical complication following open surgical fasciectomy. There were zero postoperative infections, vascular injuries, or tendon injuries. The rate of nerve injury was 2.1%. The rate of postoperative skin necrosis was 4.2%. These rates were comparable or lower than those of historical published data.
conclusionsThe rate of perioperative complications in patients undergoing limited surgical fasciectomy after previous CCH treatment is low. The findings of this study will aid the counseling of Dupuytren patients in deciding whether to pursue treatment with CCH versus open surgical fasciectomy.
