The DISC trial Part 2: Surgery vs Injection for Dupuytren's Contracture
Posted: Wednesday, 10 September 2025
It's time for part 2 of the DISC trial, and the big reveal of the results! We're back with Charlie Welch and Dr Puvan Tharmanathan to talk about the Dupuytren's Interventions: Surgery vs Collagenase Trial (DISC), PLUS Chief Investigator Professor Joseph Dias joins us to discuss the results and what they mean.
How do clinicians and patients choose the right path for treating Dupuytren's contracture? For a long time, the answer wasn't straightforward. We're taking a close look at the DISC trial and how its important findings are making that choice clearer.
