This new edition brings together five leading authorities in nail
surgery in this well established and definitive textbook.
The entire text is extended in this edition, and particular emphasis
is placed on the advances in treatments that have taken place in
recent years. Considerable strides have been made in the treatment of
fungal diseases (onychomycoses) with the appearance of new
therapeutic agents. There is also much greater coverage of nail
surgery to reflect the increasing involvement of the dermatologist in
this field. The section on nail tumours has also been expanded.
Drs Baran and Dawber have been joined by David de Berker, Eckhart
Haneke and Antonella Tosti on the editorial team. This move is
representative of the major European contribution to the field of
nail surgery in recent years. Significant contribution has come from
Dr Elvin Zook, the eminent American hand surgeon, who has helped to
ensure that the book is as relevant in North America as it is in
Europe.
Updated and extended throughout with more emphasis new treatments,
particularly for fungal infection
Provides greater coverage of nail surgery, as dermatologists become
increasingly involved in this area
Contains many new photographs and illustrations
