“…To the best of our knowledge, we could only retrieve three cases of retronychia, all reported in older individuals. 1,2 In these cases, retronychia affected one fingernail in two patients and the great toenails bilaterally in the third patient. In all cases, retronychia presented with a 3-to 6-month history of persistent paronychia that did not respond to conventional therapy.…”

“…Cette onycholyse ne permet plus au lit de l'ongle d'assurer, en coordination avec l'action de la matrice, le guidage de la tablette vers l'avant et explique l'arrêt de la croissance. D'autres, comme De Berker et al [2], constatent que la tablette la plus superficielle (donc la plus ancienne) est plus adhérente au lit unguéal et résistante à l'avulsion qu'une tablette normale.
