Résumé
Amputation for subungual malignancy (SUM) was thought to be the gold standard in preventing recurrence and metastasis. The rationale behind this aggressive treatment was never based on scientific evidence. Even though multiple recent studies supported more conservative management by illustrating successful results of the digit salvage technique, especially for "in situ" SUM, this salvage approach is not well supported for the more aggressive type of the "invasive" SUM; herein, we salvaged two cases of "invasive" SUM. Ensuring complete resection with negative margins while preserving the functionality of the affected digit is considered to be the optimal challenge in treating "invasive" subungual malignancies. These two case reports contribute by reporting a successful digit salvage. The safety of this procedure could be confirmed by larger series and longer follow-up periods.
