Titanium and Yellow Nail Syndrome
Yellow nail syndrome was defined in 1964 as a combination of slow growing, discoloured nails and edema (Samman & White, 1964). The rate of growth of finger nails was less than 0.2 mm per week compared with the normal 0.5-1.2 mm per week. The nails were thickened and the cuticles were deficient. The color varied from pale yellow to slightly greenish. Onycholysis (separation of the nail from its ...
متن کاملTitanium exposure and yellow nail syndrome.
Yellow nail syndrome is a rare disease of unclear etiology. We describe a patient who develops yellow nail syndrome, with primary nail and sinus manifestations, shortly after amalgam dental implants. A study of the patient's nail shedding showed elevated nail titanium levels. The patient had her dental implants removed and had complete resolution of her sinus symptoms with no change in her nail...
متن کاملRole of Titanium in the Development of Yellow Nail Syndrome
Yellow nail syndrome (YNS) is characterized by the triad of nail changes, lymphedema and respiratory tract involvement. Several hypotheses have been postulated to explain the findings in YNS including lymphatic drainage abnormalities along with microvasculopathy. The most recent hypothesis, proposed by Berglund and Calmark [Biol Trace Elem Res 2011; 143: 1–7], suggests a role of titanium dioxid...
