  ABSTRACT: Ultraviolet (UV) lamps are used in nail salons as part of standard gel nail manicures. While UV radiation is a known risk factor for the development of skin cancers, the risk from exposure to UV nail lamps is unclear. We present a case of a woman who developed squamous cell carcinoma in one finger after exposure to UV lamps. A discussion of the correlation between UV nail lamps and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is provided. Orthopedic surgeons frequently encounter skin cancers of the hand however the role of UV nail lamps has not yet been elucidated in the orthopedic literature. This manuscript aims to address that gap and facilitate patient counseling during such consultations.
