Understanding Tenectomy: A Guide to the Surgical Procedure for Dupuytren's Contracture

Tenectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the tendons that connect the flexor muscles to the bones in the hand or wrist. This procedure is typically performed to treat conditions such as Dupuytren's contracture, where the tendons become thickened and cause the fingers to bend inward. By removing the affected tendons, the surgeon can help to straighten out the fingers and improve the patient's ability to use their hand.
