AbstractA rare association of twenty-nail dystrophy with segmental vitiligo is described in two patients. Vitiligo preceded the nail dystrophy. In both cases, all twenty nails were uniformly affected with the nail plates showing longitudinal striations and loss of luster. Longitudinal nail biopsy revealed a histological picture suggestive of eczematous changes and lichen planus respectively. Intramatrix injections of triamcinolone acetonide into the proximal and lateral nail folds were administered with considerable improvement.
