U035 Minimally Invasive Nail Surgery: Save the Nail!
DESCRIPTION
Open admission to eligible categories, no tuition or ticket
At least in Dermatology, diagnosis and treatment of nail diseases or nail problems has moved from severe traumatizing surgery to delicate nail-preserving and minimal invasive techniques. This session provides instructive cases, leading the audience from localizing the problem in the anatomic (sub-)unit to planning an individual approach. There is often more than one way or technique to achieve acceptable results or healing. However, presented techniques are time-tested to the benefit of the patient and will help to avoid unnecessary pain and destruction or even permanent suffering by preventing mutilation of the nail-organ. Save the nail!
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Evaluate specific nail problems
Localize relevant anatomic site as origin of pathology
Focus on nail-preservation and minimal trauma
