    Background:

    • Congenital pachyonychia is a rare disorder characterized by thickened nails.
    • Understanding its genetic basis and clinical manifestations is crucial for management.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of congenital pachyonychia were clinically evaluated.
    • Detailed family histories and genetic studies were conducted.
    • Histopathological examination of nail samples was performed.

    Findings:

    • The study explored the genetic underpinnings of congenital pachyonychia.
    • Aminoaciduria was investigated in affected individuals.
    • Clinical and histopathological features were documented.

    Implications:

    • This research contributes to the understanding of congenital pachyonychia.
    • Findings may guide future diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
    • Further research into treatment options is warranted.
