A simple method of treatment for ingrowing toenail by radical excision of the affected nailfold is described. The results in a prospective series of 50 patients are presented. This procedure, first described in 1872, does not destroy the nail, which heals to give an excellent cosmetic result. The recurrence rate after 18 months was 20 per cent, which compares favourably with procedures in which the nailbed is ablated. This method is proposed as an alternative to more complex procedures, especially when a cosmetic result is desired.
本文描述了一种通过彻底切除受影响的甲沟来治疗嵌甲的简单方法。展示了对50例患者进行前瞻性研究的结果。该手术最早于1872年被描述，不会破坏指甲，指甲愈合后外观效果极佳。18个月后的复发率为20%，与切除甲床的手术相比更具优势。该方法被提议作为更复杂手术的替代方案，尤其是在期望获得良好外观效果的情况下。
