Squamous cell carcinoma of the nail bed: a clinicopathological study of 12 cases

J Guitart et al. Br J Dermatol. 1990 Aug.

Abstract

Twelve cases were reviewed of squamous cell carcinoma of the nail bed, with emphasis on the aetiological role of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and radiation damage. Using a hybridization technique, similar HPV genomes were detected in a uterine cervical neoplasia and a subungual squamous cell carcinoma in the same patient.
