title: Superficial white onychomycosis.
abstract: A study on the incidence and causative organisms of pedal superficial white onychomycosis within several patient populations is presented. Early recognition, debridement, and topical antifungal therapy for several weeks with attention to biomechanical factors should resolve the infection and prevent progression to a more destructive form of onychomycosis.
