Official title
Review of the Literature and Retrospective, Single-centre Study of a Series of Patients Who Underwent Reconstruction After Complete Nail Resection.
Overview
Melanomas of the nail bed are often diagnosed at the locally advanced stage. The standard treatment was amputation of the finger or toe, but it has now been established that enlarged excision of the nail plate is sufficient under certain conditions. Reconstruction of the nail system can be performed by several techniques. Here, the investigators present a series of patients reconstructed by INTEGRA (dermal matrix) and skin graft
Interventions
- Other Patients who have undergone extensive nail resection with reconstruction
The investigators studied a population of 10 patients who underwent nail and nail matrix excision surgery as part of the treatment of subungual melanoma, as well as the reconstruction, the investigators opted for. The specific intervention of this study is based on late postoperative questions (after 3 months)
Primary outcome measures
- Functional and cosmetic patient satisfaction [Time frame: 3 months minimum postoperative]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- Post-operative complications [Time frame: 3 months minimum postoperative]
- Recurrence of the disease [Time frame: 3 months minimum postoperative]
