Nail disease in pemphigus vulgaris
Dermatology Online Journal, 08/05/09
Serratos BD et al. – The most common nail manifestations reported were acute or chronic paronychia and onychomadesis, and involvement of the fingernails. The nail changes may precede or develop concurrently with the mucocutaneous presentation. The diagnosis can be made by histologic identification and/or by the presence of IgG and C3 with direct immunoflourescence testing. Systemic treatment is required and highly effective; it includes a tailored combination of anti–inflammatory medications, immunosuppressive agents, and/or immunomodulatory treatments. This review aims to provide a better understanding of pemphigus vulgaris nail changes and guidance for clinical treatment.
