  • Title: Nail hyperpigmentation secondary to therapy with doxorubicin.
    Author: Giacobetti R, Esterly NB, Morgan ER.
    Journal: Am J Dis Child; 1981 Apr; 135(4):317-8. PubMed ID: 7211789.
    Abstract:
    Hyperpigmentation of the fingernails can occur during therapy with doxorubicin (Adriamycin). Two patterns are common: diffuse, and transversely banded. The pigment is believed to be melanin, and both patterns disappeared with discontinuation of therapy and subsequent nail growth.
