Heritable nail diseases are associated with a great variety of inherited diseases and syndromes. Well over 60 HEDs and numerous other inherited nail abnormalities are known to exist. A classification system of these disorders, as well as the specific nail change found in each, has been presented. Table 1 has been included to correlate many of the nail disorders with their corresponding inherited disease or syndrome. Clinically, inherited nail diseases may appear to be of questionable importance. In cases of primary presentation or poor historical background, however, these subtle nail changes may prove useful in arriving at or substantiating a diagnosis.
遗传性指甲疾病与多种遗传性疾病和综合征相关。已知存在超过60种遗传性指甲疾病（HEDs）以及许多其他遗传性指甲异常。本文已提出了这些疾病的分类系统，以及每种疾病中发现的特定指甲变化。已列入表1以关联许多指甲疾病与其相应的遗传性疾病或综合征。在临床上，遗传性指甲疾病可能看似重要性存疑。然而，在初次就诊或病史不佳的情况下，这些细微的指甲变化可能有助于做出诊断或证实诊断。
