    Author: Kebudi R, Ayan I, Görgün O, Ağaoğlu FY, Dizdar Y, Darendeliler E.
    Journal: Leuk Res; 2006 Jul; 30(7):899-902. PubMed ID: 16310851.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a syndrome characterized by clubbing of the fingers and toes, periosteal new bone formation of the long bones and polyarthritis. CASE REPORT: In this report, two children with intrathoracic Hodgkin's disease and HOA are presented. CONCLUSIONS: Intrathoracic neoplasms are one of the major causes of HOA in adults; however HOA is rarely associated with intrathoracic malignancies in children. HOA associated with intrathoracic Hodgkin's disease is even more rare, but should be kept in mind.
