Abstract
Squamous-cell carcinomas of the finger and the nail bed are uncommon lesions. Etiologic factors, clinical and histological morphology and treatment modalities of squamous-cell carcinomas, specifically of the hand digits, are discussed. Six new cases of squamous-cell carcinomas of the finger and nail bed treated by the Mohs' surgical technique are presented. The advantages of this modality are outlined. A review of the relevant literature with detailed references is included.
