Résumé

RÉSUMÉ
La maladie de Dupuytren est une affection touchant les fascias palmaires, d’évolution infiltrante et rétractile. Les facteurs incriminés sont l’alcoolisme, le travail manuel, les microtraumatismes et d’autres facteurs comme le diabète. Autrefois qualifiée de maladie rare en Afrique noire, de nombreux cas ont été décrit depuis 1974. Au Niger, aucun cas n’est à ce jour documenté. Nous rapportons un cas de maladie de Dupuytren avec une atteinte bilatérale qui est découverte fortuitement chez un sujet sahélien agriculteur de profession et traité par dermofasciectomie associée à une greffe de peau totale. Nous préconisons la technique chirurgicale utilisée dans notre cas pour éviter les récidives qui pourraient être si onéreuses pour notre patient au bas revenu financier.
ABSTRACT
Dupuytren's disease is a condition that affects the palmar fascia, causing infiltrating and contractile symptoms. The implicated factors include alcoholism, manual labor, microtrauma, and other factors such as diabetes. Previously considered a rare disease in Sub-Saharan Africa, numerous cases have been reported since 1974. In Niger, no cases have been documented to date. We present a case of Dupuytren's disease with bilateral involvement, which was incidentally discovered in a Sahelian farmer and treated with dermofasciectomy and total skin grafting. We recommend the surgical technique used in our case to prevent costly recurrences for our low-income patient.
