Morbo di Dupuytren, con la collagenasi non occorre intervento. Intervista al dott. Filippo Boriani

Collagenase as a non-surgical weapon against Dupuytren's disease, a condition that affects the hand, causing permanent curvature of one or more fingers and the appearance of nodules on the palm of the hand. We discussed this with Dr. Filippo Boriani, Specialist in Plastic and Hand Surgery, and Scientific Director, along with Dr. Roberto Urso, Specialist in Orthopedics and Traumatology at the Maggiore Hospital in Bologna, of the "1st Bologna Open Day on Surgical Hand," held at the private "Eugenio Gruppioni" hospital in Pianoro and organized by AV Eventi e Formazione. The event focused on a sophisticated organ that is crucial to our social lives, promoting awareness and prevention of its pathologies. "A correct diagnosis is essential," stated Dr. Roberto Urso, "to establish a treatment plan that doesn't necessarily require surgery. Reduced sensitivity in the fingers or difficulty opening and closing them, swelling, or sharp pain in the joints are generally symptoms that require specialist consultation and should never be underestimated." The video interview with Dr. Boriani, conducted by Salvo Falcone, also focuses on therapies performed with fat injections, which exploit their high growth factor potential.
