AbstractYellow nail syndrome is a rare entity of unknown etiology. Classically, it consists of a triad of slow-growing yellow nails of fingers and toes, lymphedema, and pulmonary manifestations mainly pleural effusion. Other pulmonary manifestations also have been described in the literature such as bronchiectasis, recurrent pneumonias, bronchitis, and sinusitis. This paper describes a case of yellow nail syndrome which did not have the classic triad of the condition; he presented with progressive yellow hand and toe nails intermittent lymphedema, bronchctasis, and sinusitis without pleural effusion.
