The patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 included 30 patients (22 boys and eight girls) with hallux valgus interphalangeal deformity. Group 2 included 30 patients (20 boys and ten girls) without toe deformity.\n <\/jats:p>\n \n Results:<\/jats:bold>\n The mean \u00b1 SD patient age was 12.8 \u00b1 1.42 years and 12.5 \u00b1 1.45 years in groups 1 and 2, respectively. There was no significant difference between the patient and control groups in terms of age and sex (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n > .05). The mean \u00b1 SD follow-up time was 30.2 \u00b1 13.46 months in group 1 and 31.3 \u00b1 12.86 months in group 2 (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = .286). We observed recurrence in six patients (20%) in group 1 and in two patients (6.7%) in group 2.\n <\/jats:p>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n The recurrence of an ingrown toenail may be associated with an increased hallux interphalangeal angle in pediatric patients. Factors related to the hallux interphalangeal angle abnormality, which increases the risk of ingrown toenails, also increase the recurrence rate in these patients. Therefore, it is surmised that hallux valgus interphalangeal deformity should be evaluated before surgery, and patients and their families should be informed about the increased risk of recurrence.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7547\/21-217","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]],"date-time":"2023-02-01T17:18:00Z","timestamp":1675271880000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Relationship Between Hallux Valgus Interphalangeal Deformity and the Recurrence of Ingrown Toenail in Children"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"114","author":[{"given":"Ersin","family":"Tasatan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Prof. Dr. Cemil Tasc\u0131oglu City Hospital, Sisli, Istanbul, Turkey."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Esra Akdas","family":"Tekin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","reference":[{"key":"B1","series-title":"Ann R Coll Surg Engl","first-page":"99","article-title":"Surgical treatment of ingrown toenails in children: what is practice?","volume":"93","author":"Mitchell S","year":"2001","unstructured":"Mitchell S, Jackson CR, Wilson-Storey D: Surgical treatment of ingrown toenails in children: what is practice?
