A 5-year-old caucasian child is described with a congenital melanocytic periungual and subungual nevus on the right second toe. Histopathologic examination revealed a junctional nevus. Congenital subungual nevi in this location are rare. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first case of lesion on the right second toe to be reported in the literature.
