Abstrakt: Objectives: The choice of surgical technique for aponeurectomy in Dupuytren's disease is controversial due to varying outcomes and complication rates. The Malingue plasty has shown mathematical and mechanical advantages, but long-term efficacy and results compared to other techniques have never been reported. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term functional, esthetic and recurrence outcomes of Malingue plasty in Dupuytren's disease.
Material and Methods: The study included patients who underwent aponeurectomy with Malingue plasty performed by a highly experienced surgeon between January 2014 and December 2016, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. Preoperative records were analyzed. At follow-up, extension lag was analyzed in each joint (metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal and distal interphalangeal) in each operated finger, as well as signs of recurrence or extension of the disease. Function and esthetics were assessed using the QuickDASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) questionnaire and the Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire.
Results: Out of 107 eligible patients, 55 were included in the study after exclusions and loss to follow-up. Three patients required revision surgery for recurrence during follow-up. All preoperative deformities of the proximal interphalangeal and metacarpophalangeal joints were corrected postoperatively, and no intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. Mean extension deficit at follow-up was 18.1 °. Only the little finger showed significant loss of correction (p = 0.02). Mean QuickDASH score was 13.2 and the overall Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire score was 91.8%. Recurrence affected 50% of patients according to the Leclercq criteria and 27.5% according to the Felici criteria.
Conclusion: Although Malingue plasty did not improve the recurrence rate in Dupuytren's disease compared with other techniques, its advantages in terms of functional improvement and complications make it an interesting surgical option.
