| Abstract: | Dupuytren’s disease is a common, costly and recurrent health issue. This review compares Clostridum histolyticumcollagenase with current operative treatments. Collagenase management is an effective non-surgical alternative associated with lower risks of serious adverse events, but higher incidence of non-serious adverse events. |
