[Diagnosis and treatment of bone paronychia].

Examination and operations were made on 46 patients with bony panaritium. Early diagnosis of this disease along with X-ray examination were based on data of case histories of the patients and clinical symptoms. Surgical treatment included parsimonious dissection of necrotic tissues and suturing the wounds. In cases of large subcutaneous cavities drainage of the wound by perfusion with an antiseptic solution was used. Best results were obtained with the help of tamponage of the wound following removal of the altered tissues by a dry gauze turunda and a bath with the solution of potassium permanganate of feziamon.
