description Nail abnormalities are frequently found in oncologic patients who have undergone chemotherapy. Although these changes do not require treatment, they could influence the treatment plan and the patient’s quality of life. Some nail disorders lead to severe complications. Herein, the author reports on a patient with advanced breast cancer who received multiple kinds and cycles of chemotherapy. She developed multiple, parallel, transverse grooves, compatible with Beau’s lines, on the nail plate of all her fingernails and toenails. This report aims to further the knowledge of medical students, physicians, and healthcare providers regarding the nails of patients who receive chemotherapy.
