What is another name for spoon nails?

Onychatrophia
Kolionychia
Onychosis
Onychia

The correct answer is: Onychatrophia

Another name for spoon nails is Onychatrophia. This is because spoon nails, also known as koilonychia, is a nail disorder where the nails are excessively curved and have a spoon-like appearance. The other options, kolionychia, onychosis, and onychia, are not correct as they refer to different nail disorders. Kolionychia is a condition where the nails are concave and sunken in the middle, onychosis is a general term for any nail disorder, and onychia refers to inflammation or infection of the nail bed. Therefore, Onychatrophia is the most accurate and specific term for spoon nails.
