[Syndrome of the ingrown nails?].

Among the 20 patients with ingrowing toenails operated on in the Department of Dermatoloy in Cologne in 1976, we noticed a combination of the following signs: ingrowing big toenail, latent diabetes, tall stature, pseudo-acromegaly, hyperhidrosis and a preponderance of the male sex and of the age group 12-16 years. Our findings indicate that all patients with ingrowing toenails should be examined for latent diabetes, and that ingrowing toenails are mainly to be found in young male patients with a particular type of constitution.

The ingrowing toenail: a modified segmental matrix excision operation.

A series of 528 patients with ingrowing toenails has been operated on under local anaesthetic by one surgeon using a simple technique in which a segment of germinal matrix is completely excised without cutting skin and with minimal interference with the nail wall. Normal footwear was worn by the fifth day in 79 per cent of patients. The recurrence rate was 1--7 per cent.

Foot pain in children.

A general approach to the child with foot pain has been described. In that the pediatrician is so often the recipient of parent's questions about children's shoes, it is well for him to be aware of problems relating to poorly fitting shoes, probably the most common source of complaints of foot pain in children. With a systematic approach, the pediatrician is very capable of managing the majority of such complaints.
