Subungual blue nevus

Anne Sophie Causeret et al. J Am Acad Dermatol. 2003 Aug.

Junctional or compound melanocytic nevus and melanoma may involve the nail apparatus and are usually discussed in the differential diagnosis of nail pigmentation. Blue nevus has been very rarely reported in this location. We report the second clinicopathologic study of a subungual blue nevus.
