Cornectomy

The cornea is a mass that protrudes from the stratum corneum into a conical shape to the dermis, which occurs in the plantar and toe-side compression sites. Generally small corns can be cured with drug application. For those who are in the weight-bearing part of the ankle, who have severe walking pain, who are not treated with drugs, or who have repeated infections, should be surgically removed after the inflammation subsides. For large corns that cannot be directly sutured, simple resection is not applied, so as to prevent the incision from being sutured, residual painful scars, and more affecting function. Non-surgical treatment should be actively used; if not, resection and flap repair. The toe (finger) joints and the palms of the fingers are easy to form scars after resection, affecting the activity or fingertips, and non-surgical treatment should be used. Corns caused by sacral or phalangeal deformities or protrusions must be considered for corn resection after malformation or removal of the bone.

The blood coagulation mechanism has serious obstacles. 2. Hypertension, diabetes, and some bleeding-prone diseases. Preoperative preparation 1. Clean the local skin. If there is a fungal disease in the skin and toe (finger) near the lesion, surgery should be performed before treatment. 2. Soak in hot water to remove the thick skin on the surface. Surgical procedure A fusiform skin incision was made along both sides of the cornea. After cutting to the skin, the flap was lifted with a tissue forceps. The cornea was yellow-white and conical, and the texture was hard and clearly demarcated from the surrounding tissue. It is bluntly separated around the cornea until the root, such as the proximal root fracture, can be removed with a knife tip, and can not be left to avoid recurrence. There is no need to ligature the bleeding point, and the incision can be used to bleed. The incision was sutured with a large curved triangular needle. complication infection.
