A comparison of electrosurgery and sharp debridement in the treatment of chronic neurovascular, neurofibrous and hard corns. A pragmatic randomised controlled trial.
Bevans JS, Bosson G.
Foot (Edinb). 2010 Mar;20(1):12-7.

 

I don't think the abstract gives us enough information on the design of the study, etc to be able to evaluate it.

Did group a) have the corn enucleated removed before the electrosurgery?

Before the six month review how many treatments were carried out on each corn?
What does treated with electrosurgery mean? What depth of tissue was removed?
Who decided and how was it decided that there was no change or partical resolution?

Is the complete text available?

Fascinating subject especially since Im currently writing an essay on it (!) I cant find another RCT on the subject..... (recent anyway!). Any ideas?

Cheers
