Abstract
- Onychomycosis is a relatively common fungal infection. Treatment modalities include oral and topical antifungals, surgical treatment or a combination of these therapies. But treatment failure is common and oral drugs may cause toxicity and potential drug interactions. Currently, there are few publications about the treatment of onychomycosis using photodynamic therapy or laser therapy. We report two cases of toenail onychomycosis treated by 1,064 nm Nd:YAG laser.
