Abstract
Onychomycosis, a fungal infection of the nails, presents a significant challenge in clinical management due to its chronic nature and resistance to conventional therapies. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of laser therapy in treating onychomycosis compared to traditional methods such as terbinafine. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to analyze existing literature on the subject. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) diagram illustrates the selection process of studies. Findings suggest that laser therapy demonstrates promising results in the treatment of onychomycosis, with comparable efficacy to terbinafine and fewer adverse effects. Further large-scale randomized controlled trials are warranted to validate these findings and establish laser therapy as a standard treatment option for onychomycosis.
