Dupuytrens disease is a fibroproliferative disorder usually isolated to the palm and digits. The disease limited to the DIP and PIP joint is a rare condition. Here we describe a 51-year-old patient with Dupuytren's disease confined to the interphalangeal joints of the little finger. [Hand Microsurg 2012; 1(2.000): 65-67
