Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons--pakistan: JCPSP, 2006•europepmc.org… A total of 50 patients who were suffering from different clinical variants of onychomycosis,
irrespective of their age, gender, with or without simultaneous presence of systemic
diseases, were subjected to laboratory investigations including direct microscopy with 20%
potassium hydroxide (KOH) for fungal hyphae, fungal cultures and nail plate biopsies. These
patients were later categorized into two groups based upon the results of nail plate biopsies.
… Nail scraping for direct microscopy with 20% KOH should be the first line screening test for …
