title: [Skin and ungual pigmentation caused by ftorafur].
abstract: We report the case of a sixty-seven-years-old male diagnosed of a gastric adenocarcinoma that presented brown pigmentation in the dorsal of his both hands and fingernails while being on treatment with ftorafur, an analogous of 5-fluorouracil. To our knowledge this side effect has not been previously reported for ftorafur.
