Pachydermoperiostosis, Pachyderma, Clubbing of fingersAbstract
Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare disorder with variable presentation and it is characterized by clubbing of the fingers (acropachia), skeletal changes (periostosis), thickening of the skin (pachyderma), and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Clinical presentations of PDP can be confused with secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid acropachy, and acromegaly.We report a patient with complete PDP.
