Abstract
Surgical excision of the pigmented nail matrix followed by histopathologic examination is a common procedure aimed at managing longitudinal melanonychia (LM). In some cases, use of a standard scalpel can pose challenges, particularly if the width of the pigmented matrix lesion is narrow. We explore an alternative and effective tool-the customized dermal curette.
