  • Title: Subungual exostosis: a simple technique of excision.
    Author: Multhopp-Stephens H, Walling AK.
    Journal: Foot Ankle Int; 1995 Feb; 16(2):88-91. PubMed ID: 7767453.
    Abstract:
    Subungual or Dupuytren's exostosis is a benign lesion of the distal phalanx that is prone to recurrence if incompletely excised. We report on a series of five patients treated with our simple excision technique. Despite sacrifice of a portion of the nail bed, the cosmetic appearance of the nail was excellent in four patients and good in one patient. There were no recurrences.
