  Fig. 1 Clinical appearances of three cases of onychopapilloma. (A) Longitudinal reddish-yellow colored chromonychia was seen on the left thumbnail (patient 1). (A2) Post-treatment clinical view (after one month). (B) Multiple longitudinal yellowish chromonychia with marked subungual hyperkeratosis was seen on the right thumbnail (patient 2). (B2) Post-treatment clinical view (after 7 months). (C) Multiple longitudinal red streaks were seen on the left thumbnail. (C2) Post-treatment clinical view (after 12 months). (A1~C1) The nail plate was extracted and 2 mm punch biopsy and curettage were performed on the nail bed (arrows). (A3~C3) There was acanthosis of the epithelium of the nail bed (A3, B3), a digitation of the epithelium parallel to the nail plate (A3) and a thickened epithelium (C3) (H&E, ×100).
