Abstract

Introduction: Ingrown toenail is a very common nail disorder, and partial matricectomy by phenolization is considered the most effective treatment technique. However, the contact time of the phenol with the nail matrix remains debatable.

Objective: To evaluate the recurrence rate of ingrown toenail after partial matricectomy by phenol for 45 seconds.

Methods: A total of 1,460 surgeries were performed, with a photographic record of 802 pictures for a period of 6 months. The presence of any nail spicule or sign of ingrowth during follow-up was considered a recurrence.

Results: A total of 802 surgeries were evaluated, with the most affected nails being the right (49.3%) and left (48%) big toes and most frequently the lateral fold (54.5%). The recurrence rate was 0.75% at 3 months and 1.87% at 6 months, and the medial nail fold had a higher recurrence rate than the lateral nail fold.

Conclusion: Forty-five seconds of contact time of 88% phenol with the nail matrix was enough and effective, resulting in low recurrence rates. Prospective studies are needed to better assess postoperative morbidity.

用苯酚进行 45 秒基质灼烧后嵌甲复发率评估

简介嵌甲是一种非常常见的甲病，通过苯酚化法进行部分甲基质切除被认为是最有效的治疗技术。然而，苯酚与甲基质的接触时间仍有争议：评估使用苯酚进行45秒部分甲基质切除术后嵌甲的复发率：方法：共进行了 1,460 例手术，并在 6 个月内拍摄了 802 张照片。结果：共进行了 802 例手术，并在 6 个月内拍摄了 802 张照片：共对 802 例手术进行了评估，受影响最大的指甲是右脚（49.3%）和左脚（48%）大脚趾，最常见的是侧褶（54.5%）。3个月和6个月的复发率分别为0.75%和1.87%，内侧甲襞的复发率高于外侧甲襞：结论：88%的苯酚与甲基质接触45秒就足够了，而且效果很好，复发率很低。需要进行前瞻性研究，以更好地评估术后发病率。
