ABSTRACT
Pincer nail is a transverse overcurvature of the nail plate that may appear in association with a variable number of diseases. We present a case report of a 28-year-old woman with pincer nail deformity associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. A renal biopsy confirmed class V lupus nephritis and treatment had included systemic steroids and cyclophosphamide. After 6 months there was a marked improvement of nail deformities.
