Peroperative confocal microscopy of the nail matrix in the management of in situ or minimally invasive subungual melanomas.
British Journal of Dermatology, 06/18/2012
Debarbieux S et al. – Intraoperative reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) examination of the nail matrix is an efficient diagnostic approach of melanonychia striata that permits an extemporaneous diagnosis of malignancy and therefore a one–step surgical treatment of in situ or minimally invasive melanoma reducing dramatically the duration of post–operative disability.
