Treatment of corns by injectable silicone.
    Archives of dermatology, 1975, Volume: 111, Issue:9

    Corns and calluses are the most frequently encountered foot complaints. The choices of care range from self trimming and application of over-the-counter remedies to professional treatment, which may include tendon, skin, and bone surgery. A technique using fluid silicone injected subdermally to cushion corns is described. Twenty-nine patients with 71 digital pressure keratoses were injected between 1965 and 1970. Results of treatment of 77% of the corns were rated good to excellent after an average follow-up period of six years, and no serious reactions have been observed. The procedure offers an effective, nondisabling method of treatment, as opposed to lifelong palliation or surgical intervention.
