Abstract
- Subungual metastasis resulting from internal malignancies is an extremely rare event. A few cases of subungual metastasis from lung cancer have been reported. However, subungual metastasis arising from lung cancer without any other form of distant metastases has not been reported. The misdiagnosis of a solitary subungual metastases as a benign inflammatory lesion is an important problem as it may cause the misdiagnosis of a lower stage of lung cancer. We may be reporting the first case of a subungual metastasis from lung cancer without any other distant metastases.
