Verrucous carcinoma is a rare, highly keratinizing variant of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or mucosae characterized by a local aggressiveness but a low potential for metastasis. The plantar form is also known as epithelioma cuniculatum. Fingers and toes are rarely affected, and tumors of the nail bed are exceptional. Clinically, the lesion presents like a wart and is then often misdiagnosed. Treatment of choice is wide surgical excision. A case of verrucous carcinoma of the nail apparatus is presented, and diagnosis is discussed. |
