PERFORMING SURGICAL ONYCHOPATHOLOGY OF AN INGROWN NAIL

Zlobina Ekaterina Alexandrovna

The need for comprehensive studies of purulent-necrotic pathology of the distal parts of the hand and foot (acute and chronic, complicated, combined, combined and recurrent) is primarily determined by a large number of clinical observations of uncomplicated and complicated cases. The urgency of the problem of surgical onychopathology lies in a significant number of clinical observations of uncomplicated and complicated cases, especially recurrent and mycotically associated. First of all, these are the problems of combined nail lesions, complex surgical treatment of onychocryptosis, mycotic lesions, mycotic-associated near-nail panaritium (paronychia). The issues of complex treatment of onychomycotic lesions, especially those complicated by secondary ingrowth of the nail plate, become separate problems. Operations on the nail plate account for a significant percentage (on average up to 10%) of all surgical interventions performed on an outpatient basis, and their results, due to the high frequency of undiagnosed concomitant and combined lesions, are often unsatisfactory (relapses of pathology occur according to individual sources in 5-30% of observations).
