Onychomycosis cover

There are an estimated 32 million people with onychomycosis in the United States alone, making it the most common nail disease seen and treated, but also quite misunderstood.  With the sole focus of this book devoted to onychomycosis, the reader is provided with insight into the diagnosis and management of this nail infection. Onychomycosis includes chapters on how fungus infects the nail unit, the types of nail fungus, diagnosis from a gross and microscopic view, and the various treatment options available.  With chapters written by the world’s experts along with dozens of high quality color photographs and illustrations, this book is a practical reference guide for every dermatologist, podiatrist, and primary care physician.

“This book contains a wealth of information on a subject that represents the most common dermatological condition seen in the typical podiatric physician's office. … The book is written appropriately for clinicians, and amongst its audience will be, of course, podiatrists and dermatologists. However, those in family practice, internal medicine, as well as residents in each of those areas, too will find this a good read.” (Martin C. Yorath, Doody's Book Reviews, July, 2017)
