Yellow nail syndrome
Yellow nail syndrome is characterized by yellow nails that lack a cuticle,
grow slowly, and are loose or detached (onycholysis). Yellow nail syndrome
is most commonly associated with lung disorders, and with lymphedema.

Yellow nails
Yellow nails are seen in the 'yellow nail syndrome' in which there is
thickening and yellow to yellow-green discoloration of all nails.
Lymphedema, especially of the ankles, and compromised respiration may be
present. The nails may also be over-curved both transversely and
longitudinally. Lunulae and cuticles may also be lost.
