Twenty-eight patients (33 hands) were reviewed an average 2.5 years after an open palm technique combined with partial fasciectomy for the correction of Dupuytren's disease. They were assessed by diathesis evaluation and Tubiana's score. Results show a recurrence rate of 33.5% (3% severe), an extension rate of 51.5% and an overall complication rate of 21% without reflex sympathetic dystrophy. Fifteen percent and 12% had an important deficit in flexion and extension respectively. These findings are comparable to those found in the literature.
