Analysis of a National Database Investigating Development of Trigger Finger after Treatment of Dupuytren Disease.
UNLABELLED: Dupuytren disease is associated with inflammation and myofibroblast overgrowth, as is stenosing tenosynovitis (trigger finger). Both are linked with fibroblast proliferation, but a potential associative link between the diseases is unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the progression of trigger finger following treatment for Dupuytren contracture in a large database.
METHODS: A commercial database encompassing 53 million patients was utilized from January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2020. The study cohort included patients diagnosed with either Dupuytren disease or trigger finger utilizing International Classification Codes 9 and 10. Terminology codes were used to identify common Dupuytren procedures, as well as trigger finger release. Logistic regression analysis was used to define independent risk factors for developing trigger finger.
RESULTS: A total of 593,606 patients were diagnosed with trigger finger. Of these patients, 15,416 (2.6%) were diagnosed with trigger finger after diagnosis of Dupuytren disease, whereas 2603 (0.4%) patients were diagnosed with trigger finger after treatment of Dupuytren contracture. Independent risk factors for trigger finger included age 65 years or older (OR 1.00, P < 0.05), diabetes (OR 1.12, P < 0.05) and obesity (OR 1.20, P < 0.005). Patients who received collagenase clostridium histolyticum treatment (OR 0.34, P < 0.005) for Dupuytren contracture were significantly less likely to develop trigger finger.
CONCLUSIONS: Dupuytren contracture is associated with inflammation and subsequent trigger finger development at a higher rate than the background population frequency. Collagenase clostridium histolyticum injection may lead to a decreased risk of trigger finger requiring surgical intervention in patients with risk factors.
