Ledderhose disease, a condition affecting the foot, is often linked to Dupuytren disease. Surgical removal of nodules requires careful excision of surrounding tissue, with total aponeurectomy reserved for revision procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Hand and Foot Surgery
  • Connective Tissue Diseases

Context:

  • Ledderhose disease presents with plantar fibromatosis, often co-occurring with Dupuytren disease.
  • Understanding the clinical presentation and surgical management is crucial for patient outcomes.
  • The 2nd Orthopedic Unit of the University of Florence provides a case series for analysis.

Purpose:

  • To describe the clinical appearance of Ledderhose disease.
  • To emphasize its association with Dupuytren disease.
  • To detail the surgical technique for nodule excision and aponeurectomy.

Summary:

  • The study details the clinical features of Ledderhose disease and its frequent association with Dupuytren disease.
  • A specific surgical approach for nodule removal is presented, emphasizing careful excision of adjacent healthy tissue.

  • Total aponeurectomy is recommended exclusively for revision surgeries.
  • Impact:

    • Provides insights into the surgical management of Ledderhose disease.
    • Highlights the importance of differentiating surgical approaches based on disease presentation and history.
    • Contributes to the understanding of surgical techniques in plantar fibromatosis and Dupuytren disease management.
