  • Title: Palmar fasciitis and polyarthritis syndrome associated with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder.
    Author: Clarke LL, Kennedy CT, Hollingworth P.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 2011 Jun; 64(6):1159-63. PubMed ID: 20638154.
    Abstract:
    Palmar fasciitis and polyarthritis syndrome is a rare, disabling, paraneoplastic condition of unknown pathogenesis. There is no known effective treatment, although the condition may be halted by control of the cancer. Previously reported cases have mostly been in patients with advanced ovarian malignancies. We present the case of a 69-year-old woman with this condition in association with bladder carcinoma, together with a review of the literature and discussion of possible therapeutic options.
