Abstract
A retrospective study of 13 patients assessed the use of a full thickness skin graft for nail unit reconstruction after total nail unit removal for nail bed malignancies. No failures of the graft were observed and no patient had recurrence of the malignant tumour at 4 year follow-up. Full thickness skin grafting is a simple procedure which provides a good cosmetic outcome and does not produce significant donor site morbidity.Entities:
