Abstrakt: Nail surgeries, including nail biopsies (NBs), are performed relatively infrequently-perhaps due to dermatologists' unfamiliarity with nail unit anatomy and lack of formal NB training during residency. To address this educational gap, we sought to create a guide that details the surgical instruments used for the nail matrix tangential excision (shave) biopsy technique-the most common technique used in our nail specialty clinic.
