Subungual melanoma is an uncommon disease. This paper presents eight cases where a subungual melanoma followed a single injury to the digit after an interval of between nine months and seven years (average 2.9 years). Although most injuries to the nail bed have no long term problems and subungual melanomata do arise in apparently normal nail beds, it is felt that there is increasing evidence that a direct causal relationship between the injury and the melanoma exists in some cases. This evidence includes case histories, statistical studies, the incidence of melanoma in coloured races and the distribution between the various digits.
甲下黑色素瘤是一种罕见疾病。本文呈现了8例甲下黑色素瘤病例，这些病例均在手指单次受伤后9个月至7年（平均2.9年）的间隔期出现。虽然大多数甲床损伤并无长期问题，且甲下黑色素瘤确实也会在看似正常的甲床中出现，但人们认为，越来越多的证据表明，在某些情况下，损伤与黑色素瘤之间存在直接因果关系。这些证据包括病例记录、统计研究、有色人种中黑色素瘤的发病率以及各手指间的分布情况。
