Malignant melanoma is a kind of tumor produced by melanocytes of skin and other organs. Although its incidence is low, its malignancy is very high, it is easy to metastasize, and its mortality is high. Fortunately, Mr. Liu's nail black line is only diagnosed as nail nevus, which has not developed into melanoma, so it can be removed in time.
