About this trial

The treatment of ingrown toenails is highly diverse, with numerous surgical techniques described in the literature alongside conservative approaches. The primary goals of all these surgical methods are to reduce recurrence rates, improve patients' quality of life, and achieve favorable cosmetic outcomes. In this study, we aim to compare the recently introduced Bird Flap, a modified Winograd technique, with Noel's technique and the classic Winograd method in terms of recurrence rates, patient quality of life, cosmetic outcomes, and postoperative pain.
