Résumé
Verrucous carcinoma (VC) of the nail bed is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma that is often misdiagnosed as a benign condition. The clinical presentation of this tumor is very similar to that of warts or onychomycosis hence the delayed appropriate treatment. Its association with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection has rarely been reported. The treatment of VC of the nail unit depends on the extent of the lesion and the presence or the absence of bone. We here report an unusual case of VC of the nail bed of the left big toe in a man associated with HPV53 infection that had been mistaken for a wart for 1 year. The condition was treated by ray amputation.
