AB Abnormalities  of  the  nail  unit  are  common  in  children  and  usually  represent  an  isolated  benign  process  as  opposed  to  a  manifestation  of  an  underlying  generalized  skin  disorder,  a  systemic  disease,  or  a  genetic  syndrome.  Diagnosis  of  most  common  disorders  of  the  nail  unit  is  usually  possible  on  clinical  examination.  An  understanding  of  the  normal  anatomy  of  the  nail  unit  is  essential  for  an  understanding  of  nail  disease  (see  Fig.  351-2).
