Onychocryptosis, or ingrown nail, is a common condition in which the nail plate penetrates the nail fold, often resulting in inflammation and pain. Nonsurgical and surgical treatments are utilized, but patient satisfaction with these therapies has not been well studied. The purpose of this study was to systematically review the available literature describing patient-reported outcomes of onychocryptosis treatments. We performed a search of the literature published prior to May 22, 2019. Articles were included in the review if primary data were presented, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were used, and nail involvement was specifically examined. From the initial search, 18 studies were included in the final analysis. Patients receiving both nonsurgical and surgical interventions reported high levels of overall satisfaction; however, most studies used ad hoc measures rather than validated PROMs, providing little granular information on the impact of treatment on quality of life (QoL). This review affirms that treatment for onychocryptosis results in satisfactory outcomes for patients; however, increased efforts are needed to understand the impact of therapy on patient QoL as assessed by validated outcome measure that accurately assess patients' cosmetic, physical, and social difficulties.

“…According to Karacan et al [10] in the study in which they compared Winograd and Vandenbos, recovery durations were reported as 11.8 days in both groups. Perry et al [12] While Chapeski [5] reported 94% patient satisfaction with the Vandenbos technique, Haricharan et al [17] reported 99% patient satisfaction with Vandenbos. Karacan et al [10] evaluated both functional and cosmetic satisfaction, similar to our study, by comparing Vandenbos and Winograd.…”

Abstract Background: In ingrown toenail, classifications and the treatment approaches according to staging has been clearly reported in the literature. However, there are not enough data about the selection of the appropriate surgical technique according to the stage. In this study, we compared two different surgical techniques in patients with Heifetz stage 2 and 3 in means of surgical results, recovery time, patient comfort and cosmetics. Methods: Between January 2019 and January 21, patients who applied with the complaint of ingrown toenails who were treated with two mentioned surgical techniques in two centers with at least 1 year follow-up were included. The patients were evaluated preoperatively in means of the Heifetz classification. In group 1 (n:54) matrix excising Winograd and in group 2 (n:51) matrix preserving Vandenbos techniques were used. Postoperative recovery time, complication rates, functional and cosmetic patient satisfaction were evaluated in tall cases. Results: 105 cases of ingrown toenails treated surgically were included in the study. 62 (59%) cases were Heifetz stage 2, 43 (41%) cases were Heifetz stage 3. No statistically significant difference was found between Heifetz stage 2 and stage 3, regardless of surgical technique, in complication, recurrence, patient functional/cosmetic satisfaction rates, and recovery time. In overall analysis regardless of Heifetz staging, recovery time was shorter with Winograd method (p:0.0001), complication and recurrence rates were lower with Vandenbos method (p:0.0001), and VAS cosmetic satisfaction was higher in Vandenbos (p:0.002). Conclusion: Winograd and Vandenbos in Heifitz stages 2 and 3 have low complication rates and high patient satisfaction. Earlier healing could be achieved with the Winograd technique, while low complication/recurrence rates and high cosmetic satisfaction could be achieved with the Vandenbos technique. Early recovery/high cosmetic expectation should be considered instead of Heifetz staging in determining the surgical technique.

“…In our case, we found the larva emerging from a tunnel created unexpectedly under the nail. Treatment of myiasis and ingrown toenail is generally non-operative although both entities can be serious and/or non-responsive to conservative therapy, so that a surgical approach may be required (5,6,7). According to literature, we successfully treated both periungual myiasis and ingrown toenail with a conservative approach.…”

Myiasis is the infestation of organs and tissues of human being or other vertebrate animals with dipterous larvae. Myiasis is generally rare in humans, especially in children. We present the first case of periungual myiasis by Wohlfahrtia magnifica in a 5-year-old female. Wohlfahrtia magnifica is an obligatory parasite, which has been described as cause of ophthalmomyiasis, otomyiasis, oral myiasis, vulvar myiasis and wound myiasis. Treatment of myiasis and ingrown toenail is generally non-operative although both entities can be serious and/or non-responsive to conservative therapy.
