Twenty patients with Dupuytren\u2019s disease undergoing fasciectomy for a PIP joint contracture &gt; 40\u00b0 (mean 61\u00b0, range 45\u00b0\u2013100\u00b0) were included. After excision of all other identifiable digital disease, Cleland\u2019s ligaments were assessed. If they appeared to be macroscopically affected by Dupuytren\u2019s disease they were excised, sent for histological analysis, and any further improvement of PIP joint contracture was recorded. There were 14 males and six females with a mean age of 62 (range 40\u201379) years. Excision of Cleland\u2019s ligaments resulted in a mean further correction of 7\u00b0 (range 0\u00b0\u201315\u00b0). Histological analysis indicated that Cleland\u2019s ligament was clearly involved with Dupuytren\u2019s disease in 12 patients, indicating that Cleland\u2019s ligaments can be affected by Dupuytren\u2019s disease. In the remaining specimens the histological findings were equivocal. As these structures are situated dorsal to the neurovascular bundles, a specific dissection has to be undertaken to identify them. Excision of Cleland\u2019s ligaments at digital fasciectomy further avoids leaving residual disease and may yield a worthwhile further correction of PIP joint flexion contracture.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193413510440","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]],"date-time":"2013-11-05T20:50:58Z","timestamp":1383684658000},"page":"477-481","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Cleland\u2019s ligaments and Dupuytren\u2019s disease"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"D.
