“…Our population of newly hired workers was slightly higher for combined classic/probable ratings (right hand 25.5%) than in previous studies of general and active worker population that showed rates of 11 to 18% for combined classic/probable results [3,26]. These classic and probable rates are generally higher in clinic based studies given that patients are seeking treatment for a symptomatic hand related disorder [22,37].…”

“…Judgment and interpolation are required by raters. Many past studies that have used this tool have not described the protocol for how the diagrams were rated, nor the consistency of agreement among raters [16,26,37]. In order to better understand the validity and reliability of case definitions derived from hand diagrams, researchers should report these methods and results.…”

RESUMENEn la mayoría de los casos, el origen del síndrome del túnel carpiano (STC) y el de la contractura de Dupuytren son desconocidos, sin embargo aquí presentamos la asociación de ambos padecimientos en la mano de una enferma que pocos meses antes había sufrido la avulsión de parte de una falange en ella. Al comparar los hechos con los datos de la bibliografía científica, concluimos que la avulsión fue la causa del STC o bien su desencadenante directo en una mujer que tendría alguna predisposición anatómica a padecerlo. La conclusión es aún más clara para la contractura de Dupuytren en estadio inicial en esta lesionada. Ambas enfermedades aparecieron después del traumatismo, su relación causal es coherente con los conocimientos científicos, se han publicado ya casos similares y esta mujer carecía de la mayoría de los factores de riesgo descritos en la bibliografía tanto para el STC como para la contractura palmar idiopáticos.Palabras clave: Contractura de Dupuytren, etiología, postraumático, síndrome del túnel carpiano, traumatología. Cuad Med Forense 2005; 11(40):107-111 ABSTRACTIn most cases, the etiology of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and of Dupuytren's contracture are unknown. However, here both diseases are presented associated in the hand of a woman that several months before had suffered the avulsion of part of a phalanx. Comparing these facts with the data from the literature, the conclusion is that the avulsion has been either the cause of the CTS or its direct trigger in a woman that probably had some anatomical predisposition for the disease; this conclusion is even clearer for the initial stage of Dupuytren's contracture in this woman, because both appeared after the trauma, its causal relationship is coherent with the scientific knowledge, given that similar situations have been described, and because the woman lacked most of the risk factors associated in the literature with the idiopathic CTS or with the idiopathic Dupuytren's contracture.
