    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Pterygium unguis is a rare nail condition characterized by the adherence of the nail fold to the nail plate.
    • Onychopathy refers to any disease or disorder of the nail.

    Observation:

    • An unusual case of pterygium unguis involving all fingernails is presented.
    • This presentation is rare, as pterygium unguis typically affects a single nail.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights the potential for widespread nail involvement in pterygium unguis.
    • Discussion of possible etiologies for this extensive onychopathy is included.

    Implications:

    • This case broadens the understanding of pterygium unguis presentation.
    • Further research into the causes of widespread onychopathies like pterygium unguis is warranted.
