Leukonychia refers to a white discoloration of the nails. Although several conditions may cause white nails, a rare, isolated, congenital form of the disease is hypothesized to stem from disordered keratinization of the nail plate. Herein, we report a case of a 41-year-old woman with congenital leukonychia and review prior cases.
白甲症是指指甲出现白色变色。尽管有多种情况可能导致指甲变白,但据推测,一种罕见的、孤立的先天性白甲症源于甲板的角化异常。在此,我们报告一例41岁先天性白甲症女性病例,并回顾既往病例。
