[Achromic ungual melanoma. Apropos of a case].
A 55-year-old woman presented with suppurative paronychia that became chronic. In fact, this was an exceptional case of amelanotic subungual melanoma. This case is compared with a general review of subungual melanomas. Diagnosis is often delayed, due to the difficulty caused by the misleading clinical symptoms.
