- W3188792497 abstract "To the Editor: Retronychia is an ingrowth of the nail plate into the proximal nail fold, characterized by proximal nail fold inflammation.1de Berker D.A. Richert B. Duhard E. Piraccini B.M. André J. Baran R. Retronychia: proximal ingrowing of the nail plate.J Am Acad Dermatol. 2008; 58: 978-983Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (74) Google Scholar Diagnosis is generally established with clinical findings, but most physicians are unfamiliar with retronychia. Knowledge of this condition will minimize its misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical features and treatment outcomes of retronychia at our centers. Patients with retronychia from 3 referral hospitals in South Korea were evaluated retrospectively between 2015 and 2020. The inclusion criteria were: (1) proximal nail plate ingrowth, (2) proximal nail fold inflammation, and (3) interruption of nail growth. When infection was suspected, a bacterial or mycological examination was performed. It was approved by the institutional review board. Detailed methods and supplemental data are available via Mendeley at https://data.mendeley.com/datasets/f4bf4nhkv2/1. Forty-four patients with retronychia met our inclusion criteria (Table I). The patients, predominantly women (79.5%), had an average age of 45.1 ± 18.9 years. Their comorbidities included cancers (20.5%), renal diseases (9.1%), hypertension (6.8%), diabetes (4.5%), and rheumatic diseases (4.5%). The mean disease duration was 22.2 ± 30.5 months. Retronychia was located in the toenails in 40 patients (90.9%) and in the fingernails in 4 patients (9.1%). All cases of toenail retronychia occurred in the great toenail. In cases of fingernail retronychia, multiple fingernails (range, 2-3) were affected after cast immobilization and a right brachial plexus injury. A precipitating event was found in 27 cases (61.4%), with the majority being due to trauma.Table IPatient demographics and disease characteristics (N = 44)CharacteristicValueAge (y, SD)45.1 ± 18.9Sex, n (%) Female35 (79.5) Male9 (20.5)Comorbidities, n (%) Cancer9 (20.5) Renal diseases4 (9.1) Hypertension3 (6.8) Diabetes2 (4.5) Rheumatic diseases∗Rheumatoid arthritis (n = 1) and fibromyalgia (n = 1).2 (4.5) Hepatitis B virus1 (2.3) Hypothyroidism1 (2.3) Varicose vein1 (2.3) Mental retardation1 (2.3) Brachial plexus injury1 (2.3)Disease duration (mo, SD)†Two patients with unknown onset dates were omitted from the calculation.22.2 ± 30.5Symptoms, n (%) Pain37 (84.1) None7 (15.6)Involved digits, n (%) Toenails40 (90.9)Great toenail only39 (88.6)Unilateral28 (63.6)Bilateral11 (25.0)Multiple toenails including great toenail1 (2.3) Fingernails4 (9.1)Thumbnail1 (2.3)Other fingernails (second to fifth)3 (6.8)Presence of a precipitating event, n (%)27 (61.4) Trauma7 (15.9) Climbing/Hiking/Walked too much5 (11.4) Chemotherapy4 (9.1) Tight shoes3 (6.8) Cast immobilization3 (6.8) Nail surgery‡Ingrowing nail surgery (n = 1; after chemical matricectomy) and nail avulsion (n = 1).2 (4.5) Paronychia2 (4.5) After nail polish1 (2.3)History of antifungal treatment9 (20.5)SD, Standard deviation.∗ Rheumatoid arthritis (n = 1) and fibromyalgia (n = 1).† Two patients with unknown onset dates were omitted from the calculation.‡ Ingrowing nail surgery (n = 1; after chemical matricectomy) and nail avulsion (n = 1).

Stage 2, associated with severe paronychia and proximal nail plate elevation, was detected in 22.7%. The common clinical features were onychomadesis, followed by xanthonychia, subungual hemorrhage, and malalignment.

Concurrent onychomycosis or bacterial infection was present in 25.0% and 22.7% of cases, respectively. After nail avulsion or spontaneous shedding, there was an improvement in all cases. Recurrence after nail avulsion was rare but was found in 3 cases during an average follow-up period of 12.4 months (Table II). Twelve patients received conservative management, including antifungal and antibiotic treatment in cases of concurrent infection. Most had fingernail involvement or stage 1 retronychia. During the average period of 9.2 months, improvement was achieved in 70.0%, and treatment failure occurred in 30.0%.Table IIClinical features and treatment outcomes of retronychia (N = 44)Clinical featuresValueRetronychia stage, n (%) Stage 134 (77.3) Stage 210 (22.7)Accompanying nail deformities, n (%) Onychomadesis37 (84.1) Xanthonychia36 (81.8) Subungual hemorrhage12 (27.3) Malalignment10 (22.7) Shrimp nail8 (18.2) Subungual hyperkeratosis7 (15.9) Beau's lines7 (15.9) Onycholysis4 (9.1) Pyogenic granuloma3 (6.8) Green nail3 (6.8) Foul odor2 (4.5) Onychogryphosis1 (2.3)Concurrent onychomycosis, n (%)11 (25.0)Concurrent bacterial infection, n (%)10 (22.7)Treatment outcomesValue Nail avulsion or nail shedding, n (%)32 (72.7)Surgical avulsion28 (87.5)Spontaneous nail shedding4 (12.5)Outcome∗Two patients who were lost to follow-up after treatment were omitted from the calculation.Resolution27 (90.0)Recurrence3 (10.0)Mean follow-up period (months, SD)12.4 ± 13.0 Conservative management, n (%)12 (27.3)Topical steroid6 (50.0)Topical/oral antibiotic5 (41.7)Topical/oral antifungal3 (25.0)Outcome†Two patients who were lost to follow-up after treatment were omitted from the calculation.Resolution7 (70.0)Not improved3 (30.0)Mean follow-up period (months, SD)9.2 ± 9.8SD, Standard deviation.∗ Two patients who were lost to follow-up after treatment were omitted from the calculation.† Two patients who were lost to follow-up after treatment were omitted from the calculation.

Surgical avulsion is the most effective treatment for retronychia, while conservative management can be considered in mild retronychia, especially after cast application. The limitations of this study include the retrospective study design and the inclusion of only Asian patients. Further research with a prospective study design for treatment strategies is needed.
