Popis: Green nail syndrome is a nail disorder mostly seen in the elderly and those frequently exposed to water. Gel nail polish has become a very popular alternative to regular nail polish received during manicures. This popularity has allowed potential adverse effects to surface. We present a unique case of green nail syndrome in a healthy 50 year old healthy female after the removal of gel nail polish after a few weeks. The case raises awareness to potential complications and further consequences of gel manicures.
