Abstract

The ingrown nail is a molesting affection of torpid evolution due to the difficult of the treatment, sometimes ending in a chronic suppurating stage, and sometimes recidivists after surgical treatment. That is why, we carried out a clinical assay in 40 patients that previously received treatment against that pathology and did not healed. They were applied a cauterization of liquid nitrogen. They were applied a cauterization of liquid nitrogen. The study was made at the hospital “Iluminado Rodríguez” of Jagüey Grande in the period November 2005- April 2006.
