Acantholytic tumor of the nail: acantholytic dyskeratotic acanthoma

Ursula Sass et al. J Cutan Pathol. 2009 Dec.

Abstract

Acantholytic dyskeratotic acanthomas of the skin have been recently described in several publications. They differ from acantholytic acanthomas by the presence of dyskeratosis. However these tumors have never been described in nails. We report three cases localized on the thumb nail.
