Summary: | [Display omitted]
Nail disorders in newborns can show independently or as components of systemic illnesses or genodermatoses. The examination of these abnormalities is complex and sometimes challenging. However, familiarity with these disorders can significantly contribute to uncovering potential underlying conditions.
This review includes the physiological nail changes seen within the first few months of life, such as Beau's lines, onychoschizia, koilonychia, congenital nail fold hypertrophy of the first digit, and onychocryptosis. This review also focuses on the most relevant congenital disorders reported and how to perform differential diagnosis. Finally, this review highlights those hereditary diseases in which nail involvement is crucial for diagnosis, such as nail-patella syndrome, congenital pachyonychia, or congenital dyskeratosis, among others.
Las alteraciones ungueales en los recién nacidos pueden presentarse de forma aislada o formar parte de una enfermedad sistémica o una genodermatosis. Su estudio resulta complejo y en ocasiones supone un reto, sin embargo, el conocimiento de estas alteraciones puede resultar de gran utilidad a la hora de descubrir posibles dolencias ocultas.
Esta revisión incluye los cambios fisiológicos ungueales que aparecen en los primeros meses de vida: líneas de Beau, onicosquisis, coiloniquia, hipertrofia congénita de los pliegues ungueales del primer dedo y onicocriptosis. También se ocupa de las anomalías congénitas más relevantes y cómo realizar su diagnóstico diferencial. Por último, se destacan aquellas enfermedades hereditarias en las que la afectación ungueal es clave para hacer el diagnóstico, como el síndrome de uña-rótula, la paquioniquia congénita o la disqueratosis congénita, entre otras. |
