Dermoscopy and Onychomycosis: guided nail abrasion for mycological samples.

Diego Leonardo Bet1, Ana Lucia dos Reis1, Nilton Di Chiacchio1, Walter Belda Junior2.   

Abstract

Mycological examination is still the cornerstone for the diagnosis of onychomycosis for many dermatologists, but sampling technique interferes on its sensitivity and specificity. Nail abrasion may be used to reach the most proximal part of the lesion and can be easily accomplished with an electric abrasor. We suggest nail plate dermoscopy to identify the best location for localized abrasion to obtain adequate samples for mycological examination.
