Extracting the nail without causing any damage, especially unintended damage, was the real and primary challenge. Other key points are the absence of complications during the procedure, the stability of the extraction construct during nail extraction, and the duration of the procedure. This method's proven effectiveness lies in its absence of proximal intact sutures or specialised equipment, making it applicable to various clinical situations.
