Abstract
Sutures are commonly used to secure nail plates after nail-bed repair Here we describe a technique to secure nail plates using an adhesive - Histoacryl blue (n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate). We report a series of 16 a vulsed nail plates secured with Histoacryl after nail bed repair with a satisfactory end result. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
