Abstract

The results of morphological investigations of the palms tissues in the patients, suffering Dupuytren's contracture (DC) and in whom chronic hepatitis was diagnosed, are adduced. The patients were divided on three groups, depending on the hepatic fibrosis grade present. Determination of morphological changes in various stages in patients, suffering hepatic fibrosis stage one and lasting up to 5 years, witnesses the possibility of the DC recurrence and its severity enhancement. The authors stress the necessity of morphological investigations conduction with the objective to determine the hepatic fibrosis grade while surgical intervention planning.
