  • Title: Digital clubbing, hyperhidrosis, acro-osteolysis and osteoporosis. A case resembling pachydermoperiostosis.
    Author: Sirinavin C, Buist NR, Mokkhaves P.
    Journal: Clin Genet; 1982 Aug; 22(2):83-9. PubMed ID: 7172482.
    Abstract:
    We report a Cambodian girl with digital clubbing, profuse hyperhidrosis, and joint and leg pain and swelling. She also had extensive acro-osteolysis of distal phalanges as well as generalized osteoporosis. There was no other affected person in the family, but her parents were first cousins. Although the X-ray changes are unusual, this patient probably represents a case of pachydermoperiostosis, either occurring as a new mutation or inherited as an autosomal recessive syndrome.
