Nail examination by worthy Dr Saadat sb👆🏻

📝 Hutchinson eye sign …in herpes zoster ..

Hutchinson nail sign.. melanoma.. ( others are pseudo Hutchinson and micro Hutchinson)

Hutchinson triad in congenital syphilis ..

Hutchinson summer prurigo which is actinic prurigo.

Hutchinson malignant freckle which is lentigo maligna

What is the significance of this… Black streak…

 *Melanonychia*

 

Here there can be the following *possibilities*

 

 *1.functionsl melanonychia* ( melanocyte activation,common in dark individuals, can be due to trauma ,)

 

 *2.melanocytic nevi*

 

 *3.inflammatory skin conditions* like lp and other pigmentary disorders which can be correlated clinically)

 The pigmentation varies from brown dark brown to black

Pseudo Hutchinson can be seen too.

 

 Most commonly involves thumb but other nails can be involved as well

 

 

 *_Mostly a naevi  in matrix !*_

mostly these are *matrix naevi*  leading to band, so focal matrix ablation might lead a nail plate dystophy lateron which might look uglier than this

 

Would the nail appearance be normal after this procedure and complete healing?

 

 *Yes only the transverse lenght* *will be shortened* , rest it will be perfact

 

Grabbing this opportunity to revise *ABCDEFGHI*  , to R/O *subungual melanoma* in such cases

 

*A: Age (* 50–70 years old); African, Japanese, Chinese, and Native American heritage

 

 *B: Brown-black* pigmented band ≥3mm with blurred borders

 

 *C: Change or lack of change* despite treatment in the nail band or nail morphology

 

 *D: Digit most* commonly involved (thumb, big toe, or index finger)

 

 *E: Extension* of pigment into the skin surrounding the nail (Hutchinson sign)

 

 *F: Family or personal history* of melanoma or dysplastic nevus (atypical mole)

 

 *G – Geometry* of lesion like triangular band

 

 *H – Hyponychial involvement*

 

 *I – irregular pigment pattern* (like different color bands) , irregular spaces , irregular thickness
