Wide Awake Fasciectomy For Dupuytren's Contracture

Through the OSWA approach, a pathanatomical and logical approach can be utilized.  In this case the young gentleman presented to our OSWA service requesting amputation of his ring and little fingers- he had previous surgery under GA years before.  At OSWA surgery we fully corrected the ring finger deformity by removal of the diseased fascia and there was also a partial correction of the little finger on account of the natatory cord which was removed.
