  • Title: [Normal proximal nail fold structure (author's transl)].
    Author: Schnitzler L, Civatte J, Baran R, Verret JL.
    Journal: Ann Dermatol Venereol; 1980; 107(8-9):771-4. PubMed ID: 7447257.
    Abstract:
    Normal structure of nail fold capillaries as observed by capillaroscopy and fluoroscopy is recalled. A procedure of proximal nail fold biopsy is described. The technique is simple without disadvantage for patients. Tissue from the proximal nail fold is studied in three different ways: light microscopy with histochemistry, electron microscopy and direct immunofluorescence. In the two normal cases studied, usual epidermal and dermal components are found. Some particular point may be emphasized: sweat's droplets draining of distal part of proximal nail fold, numerous and large nervous structures, capillaries basal lamina multiplication.
