We describe a 6-year-old boy with an asymptomatic linear eruption on the left index finger with mild erythema of the proximal nail fold, nail dystrophy, and subungual hyperkeratosis of the nail. A diagnosis of nail lichen striatus was made. The child was successfully treated with a topical corticosteroid. Because of its rarity, nail lichen striatus is often under-recognized. Physicians should be familiar with the nail involvement in individuals with lichen striatus so that an accurate diagnosis can be made and unnecessary investigations and treatment avoided.
我们描述了一名6岁男孩，其左手食指出现无症状的线状皮疹，近端甲褶轻度红斑、甲营养不良及甲下角化过度。诊断为线状苔藓甲。该患儿外用糖皮质激素治疗成功。由于线状苔藓甲罕见，常未被充分认识。医生应熟悉线状苔藓患者的甲受累情况，以便做出准确诊断并避免不必要的检查和治疗。
