  • Title: [Etiology of bony bridges on the sides of the terminal phalanx of the great toe].
    Author: Fischer E.
    Journal: Radiologe; 1987 Jun; 27(6):279-81. PubMed ID: 3499630.
    Abstract:
    Bony bridges along the sides of the terminal phalanx of the great toe occur not only in acromegaly but also in one third of cases with peripheral signs of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis. Systemic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis with chronic inflammation of the interphalangeal joint of the great toe or extraarticular osseous changes in the terminal phalanx of the great toe do not influence the development of such bridges.
