Two prospective studies of ingrowing toenail management were conducted. In the first, 163 patients (204 ingrowing nail edges) who had not had previous surgery were randomised and treated by total nail avulsion, nail edge excision, or nail edge excision with phenolisation of the germinal matrix; recurrence rates one year postoperatively were 73%, 73% and 9% respectively. In the second study, 63 ingrowing nail edges which had recurred after previous operations underwent nail edge excision and phenolisation. There was a 5% recurrence rate and 5% incidence of dystrophy of the nail one year after operation.
进行了两项关于嵌甲治疗的前瞻性研究。第一项研究中，163例（204个嵌甲边缘）未曾接受过手术的患者被随机分组，并接受全甲拔除、甲缘切除或甲缘切除加生发基质酚化治疗；术后一年的复发率分别为73%、73%和9%。第二项研究中，63个曾接受过手术但复发的嵌甲边缘接受了甲缘切除和酚化治疗。术后一年的复发率为5%，甲营养不良发生率为5%。
