Digital myxoid cyst, Longitudinal nail groove, Nail dystrophyAbstract
The longitudinal nail fold is a type of onychodystrophy that typically appears as a groove beginning at the proximal fold towards the distal edge. Its etiology is unknown, although it has been associated with the presence of tumors that directly damage the matrix. Myxoid cysts, despite being a frequent entity in dermatology, it is necessary to consider other diagnoses associated with nail pathology since these are not visible in early stages. Dermoscopy can be a support tool for etiology identification of the dystrophy. We present a case with clinical and dermoscopic diagnosis of longitudinal nail groove secondary to a digital myxoid cyst.
