title: [Phalangette metastases of cancer of the mouth. An uncommon mode of propagation].
abstract: The direct propagation of a cancer of the buccal cavity or oropharynx to the bone of a distal phalanx is demonstrated in two patients suffering from onychophagy. This exceptional way of cancer propagation must be searched for if an unusual site of metastasis is encountered.
