Abstract
Key Clinical Message Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare genetic disorder that closely resembles acromegaly. Diagnosis is usually based on distinct clinical and radiological features. Oral etoricoxib therapy showed a good initial response in our patient. Abstract Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare genetic disorder with unclear etiopathogenesis. We report a case of a 38-year-old male who presented with classic features of PDP. Our patient showed a good initial response to etoricoxib therapy but the safety and efficacy over long-term use are yet to be determined in further studies.

Abstract
This case report is of the index case of bilateral transient patellar dislocation in a patient with primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is a rare complex disorder with variable presentation and thus frequently delayed diagnosis. Notably, this disease has multiple skeletal manifestations and, of relevance to this case, a proportion of patients suffer from osteitis. Our patient had serial imaging of the knee joints demonstrating osteitis and associated alteration of the femoral trochlea morphology, predisposing to bilateral transient lateral patellar dislocation. The patient’s clinical presentation, diagnosis and management are discussed. Classification of the disease and its diagnostic parameters are summarised along with key imaging features amongst various imaging modalities.

Abstract
Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO) is a rare disease inherited as a recessive or irregular dominant trait and characterized by digital clubbing, pachydermia, and periostosis. Biallelic mutations in HPGD and SLCO2A1, disturbing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) catabolism and leading to increased circulating PGE2 level, cause PHO autosomal recessive 1 (PHOAR1) and PHO autosomal recessive 2 (PHOAR2), respectively. However, no causative genes have been reported for PHO autosomal dominant (PHOAD). Here, we performed Sanger sequencing and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) on DNA samples from seven Chinese PHOAD families; after excluding other single-nucleotide variants (SNVs), structural variations (SVs), and copy number variations (CNVs) in the genomes, we reported six SLCO2A1 monoallelic mutations (c.1660G>A [p.G554R], c.664G>A [p.G222R], c.1106G>A [p.G369D], c.1065dupA [p.Q356TfsX77], c.1293delT [p.S432AfsX48], and c.1807C>T [p.R603X]) in the probands and affected family members. Then, in five other PHO families with probands carrying SLCO2A1 biallelic mutations, we verified that parents with SLCO2A1 monoallelic mutations also displayed PHO manifestations, which further confirmed the pathogenicity of SLCO2A1 monoallelic mutations and illustrated the allelic nature of PHOAD and PHOAR2. Subsequently, through comparison of seven PHOAD probands and 50 PHOAR2 patients, we found onset age in puberty and skewed penetrance rate were similar in both PHO types, but symptoms and signs of PHOAD were milder, including less severe pachydermia (p = .027) and periostosis (p = .005), and less frequent cutis verticis gyrata (p = .011), acne (p = .005), arthralgia (p = .037), and anemia (p = .023). The median urinary PGE2 level in PHOAD probands was almost half that in PHOAR2 patients (PHOAD 277.58 ng/mmoL creatinine, PHOAR2 473.19 ng/mmoL creatinine; p = .038). Moreover, through the 3-month trial of oral administration of etoricoxib, an effective response similar to that we reported previously in PHOAR2 patients was observed in PHOAD probands. In conclusion, our findings confirm that SLCO2A1 monoallelic mutations are the cause of PHOAD and broaden phenotypic spectrum of PHO. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is an orphan syndrome characterized by abnormal proliferation of the skin and osseous tissues at the distal parts of the extremities. The main clinical features are: a peculiar bulbous deformity of the tips of the digits conventionally described as "clubbing," periosteal proliferation of the tubular bones, and synovial effusions. In most instances, HOA develops a reaction to a severe internal illness, such as lung cancer, cyanotic heart disease, or liver cirrhosis. There is a subgroup of patients who do not have underlying pathology. Such cases are classified as having primary HOA. Digital clubbing is easy to recognize. Any patient with newly developed digital clubbing should undergo careful search for an underlying illness with special attention to intra-thoracic pathologies. Painful HOA is treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications. Vascular endothelial growth factor and prostaglandin E2 have been proposed as key bone proliferating mediators.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate through differential diagnosis whether hypertrophic osteoarthropathy was present on an adult macaque skeleton. MATERIALS Skeletal remains of a well-preserved adult macaque (Macaca) of unknown species curated by the archaeology department at University College London. METHODS Macroscopic and radiographic evaluation of pathological lesions. RESULTS Widespread bilateral and symmetrical periosteal new bone growth primarily affecting the limbs was observed. CONCLUSION A careful differential diagnosis of the lesions and comparison with previously published cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy among humans and non-humans suggests this animal displays a case of Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. SIGNIFICANCE Only been three reported cases of HOA in non-human primates have been reported, and all were apes. This study serves as the first reported case of HOA among non-hominoid simians, providing a detailed description of the skeletal lesions to aid future with paleopathological analyses. LIMITATIONS Small sample sizes for comparison and lack of context for this specimen limits discussion of the scope of this disease among non-human primates. SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER RESEARCH Re-evaluate skeletal collections which have not been subject to recent osteological and pathological analysis.

Abstract
Background Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare disorder characterized by clubbing of the fingers, thickening of the skin (pachyderma), and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). It typically appears during childhood or adolescence, often around the time of puberty, and progresses slowly. Clinical presentations of PDP can be confused with secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid acropachy, and acromegaly. Case presentation A Mongolian male, aged 19 years, resident of a hilly district of Nepal, with history of consanguinity, presented to our outpatient department with chief complaints of pain and swelling in both hands and feet for 6 years. The pain was insidious in onset, throbbing in nature, and not relieved by over-the-counter medications. The patient also complained of profuse sweating, progressive enlargement of hands and feet, and gradual coarsening of facial features. On examination there were marked skin folds in the forehead, face, and eyelids. Clubbing and swelling of bilateral knee joints and ankle joints was also evident. He was subsequently investigated extensively for acromegaly. Insulin-like growth factor-1 level and oral glucose tolerance test were normal. Radiography of various bones showed periosteal hypertrophy with subperiosteal bone formation. Conclusions PDP should be considered as a differential diagnosis when a patient presents with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and acromegalic features.

Abstract
Individuals with acromegaloid physical appearance or tall stature may be referred to endocrinologists to exclude growth hormone (GH) excess. While some of these subjects could be healthy individuals with normal variants of growth or physical traits, others will have acromegaly or pituitary gigantism, which are, in general, straightforward diagnoses upon assessment of the GH/IGF-1 axis. However, some patients with physical features resembling acromegaly - usually affecting the face and extremities -, or gigantism - accelerated growth/tall stature - will have no abnormalities in the GH axis. This scenario is termed pseudoacromegaly, and its correct diagnosis can be challenging due to the rarity and variability of these conditions, as well as due to significant overlap in their characteristics. In this review we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of pseudoacromegaly conditions, highlighting their similarities and differences with acromegaly and pituitary gigantism, to aid physicians with the diagnosis of patients with pseudoacromegaly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO), also known as pachydermoperiostosis is a rare genetic disease which predominantly affects skin, bone and soft connective tissue. It is characterized by the triad of pachydermia, digital clubbing and periostosis of long bones. Arthralgia or arthritis is also present in most of the cases. Genetic studies have identified the impaired PGE2 metabolism as a culprit for hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in PHO cases. We conducted a systematic review to examine the effectiveness of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), a PGE2 synthesis blocker to reduce the symptoms among PHO patients. METHODS We searched the evidence in five databases; Cochrane Library, CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and PubMed. We reported the evidence using narrative synthesis. RESULTS Out of 238 identified studies, we selected 26 for the synthesis. All were case reports which included a total of 54 patients. Among them, 39 patients were treated with at least one type of NSAIDs. Around 70% of the patients treated with NSAIDs had clinical improvement for their symptoms, mostly arthritis or arthralgia symptoms. CONCLUSION NSAIDs were effective in improving arthralgia or arthritis symptoms in majority of the PHO patients. Therefore, we recommend the use of NSAIDs in PHO patients to treat arthralgia or arthritis.

Abstract
Pachydermoperiostosis, also known as Touraine-Solente-Golé syndrome/Rosenfeld-Kloepfer syndrome/primary or idiopathic Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, is an autosomal-dominant/autosomal recessive inherited disorder with variable expression. In its complete form, it is characterized by pachyderma (thickening of the facial skin), skeletal changes (periostosis), excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis), and acropachia (digital clubbing). We report a patient with skeletal symptoms, associated with pachyderma and clubbing of fingers. Radiographs of patient showed periosteosis of distal end of long bones. We review the characteristic features of this syndrome. The patient required a close follow-up because of complications that might develop on the long-term.

Abstract
CONTEXT We previously demonstrated that deficiency of the prostaglandin transporter (SLCO2A1) is a cause of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO). However, its clinical and metabolic characteristics have not been well defined. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to expand this mutational spectrum to better delineate the SLCO2A1 deficiency phenotype and investigate the clinical and metabolic characteristics of a cohort of subjects with PHO. DESIGN, SETTING, PATIENTS, AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Eleven affected individuals and their available healthy family members from 9 unrelated Chinese families with PHO (7 of which were previously undescribed) were clinically studied. The SLCO2A1 gene was screened and analyzed. Urinary levels of prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) and prostaglandin E metabolite (PGE-M) were measured using competitive ELISAs. The serum levels of total T, estradiol, sex hormone-binding protein, LH, FSH, and fasting gastrin were detected. RESULTS Nine different SLCO2A1 mutations were identified in affected individuals in the 7 previously undescribed families, 7 of which (Glu165X, Ala286GlnfsX35, Gln356AlafsX77, Gly369Asp, Gly379Glu, Glu465Lys, and c.861+2T>C) were novel. The urinary levels of PGE₂ and PGE-M were much higher in the SLCO2A1-deficient individuals and decreased with age. There was no relationship between sex hormones and PGE₂ or PGE-M. There was no significant difference in the levels of fasting serum gastrin between PHO patients with watery diarrhea and their relatives. CONCLUSIONS The present findings broaden the allelic spectrum of SLCO2A1 mutations. The urinary levels of PGE₂ and PGE-M in the SLCO2A1-deficient individuals decreased with age. The measurement of the excreted PGE₂ and PGE-M may have implications in the differential diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of PHO.

The primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (pachydermoperiostosis) is a hereditary disease characterized by skin thickening (pachydermia), finger clubbing, and proliferation of periosteum (periostitis) with subperiosteal new bone formation. We describe the cases of two brothers of 30 and 24 years, who consulted due to bone pain, arthralgia and oligoarthritis. Pachydermia, hyperhidrosis, seborrhea, digital clubbing, periostosis and non-inflammatory effusions of the knees. The first had been diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis at age 15, while the youngest also presented with a thoracic scoliosis, hypertrophic gastritis, iron deficiency anemia and glucose intolerance by pancreatic endocrine dysfunction. In both patients, symptoms were controlled satisfactorily with etoricoxib (90mg/day) and risedronate (35mg/week).

Abstract
Pachydermoperiostosis (idiopathic hypertrophic arthropathy) {MIM 167100} is an uncommon disease characterized by unique phenotype (digital clubbing and pachydermia) and distinctive radiographic appearances (periostosis). Two families are reported that, in additional to the typical phenotype and radiographic characteristics of pachydermoperiostosis, show some rare and/or unusual, not yet reported, clinical findings. In the first family, distinctive features were severe progressive arthritis with villonodular involvement of the knees. The clinical course of the disease was much more severe than usually reported. The older brother was disabled at the age of 29 years. In the second family, the clinical history was exceptional, with unique early appearance of clinical signs. Pachydermoperiostosis is usually inherited as a dominant trait, but probable autosomal recessive inheritance has been reported. Also in the present families, autosomal recessive inheritance is likely, possibly explaining the severe clinical course of the disease. Differential diagnosis and the confusing nomenclature of pachydermoperiostosis are discussed.

Abstract
We report the cases of two middle-aged male smokers who presented to the early synovitis clinic with an acute phase response, synovitis of the wrists and ankles and clubbing of the fingers, but no respiratory symptoms. Both proved to have primary lung tumours with hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy, in one case resolving promptly with treatment of the carcinoma. We review the literature, including theories on pathogenesis.

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is characterized by digital clubbing and periosteal reaction of long bones. Most cases are associated with malignancy or other conditions such as congenital heart disease, liver cirrhosis, pulmonary fibrosis, biliary atresia, and gastrointestinal polyps. We report a 19-year-old man presenting with arthritis, broadening of the fingers and clubbing of the fingers and toes for the previous 3 years. The ankles and knees were swollen. X-rays showed periosteal apposition. The search for a secondary cause remained negative. In cases of arthralgia/arthritis together with clubbed fingers, consideration must be given to hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. The primary or idiopathic form is rare and has a good prognosis.

Abstract
Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare genodermatosis, characterized by pachydermia, digital clubbing, periostosis and an excess of affected males. Although an autosomal dominant model with incomplete penetrance and variable expression has been proved, both autosomal recessive and X-linked inheritance have been suggested. However, at present, genetic heterogeneity is not fully supported. The aim of this study is to review the clinical and pedigree data of 68 published PDP families, including 204 patients. This analysis has confirmed an autosomal dominant mutation in 37 families and suggested the existence of an autosomal recessive form in the remaining families. The two forms may differ in clinical severity, intrafamilial variability and prevalence of some features. Additionally, the marked skewed sex ratio could not be easily explained by an X-linked mutation, but alternative explanations (i.e. testosterone promoting proliferation) are discussed.

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a condition that accompanies many seemingly unrelated diseases. It is commonly associated with various clinical conditions such as pregnancy, aging, pulmonary diseases, cancers, and other systemic illnesses. The condition has been attributed to various causes such as platelet abnormalities, hormonal disturbances, and cytokine dysfunction, but the exact underlying mechanism has been elusive. We propose a unifying hypothesis that activation of the adrenergic system is the common thread that links all of the disparate clinical associations of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. In diseased states, autonomic stimulation may occur as a result of chemoreceptor activation in response to acidosis, hypoxia, or hypercapnia. Examples include sleep apnea, congestive heart failure, renal failure, and tumor-induced hypoxia. In this setting, clinical signs of HOA may be a marker of underlying autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic stimulation may also occur as a normal part of pregnancy or as an abnormal component of aging. The exact pathway linking adrenergic excess to HOA remains to be clarified, but a plausible scenario based on current molecular evidence is offered.

Abstract
We report a case of a family with a variant form of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) restricted to the lower extremities without digital clubbing or cutaneous changes. Three family members suffered from pain, swelling and hyperhidrosis of both feet. X-rays showed destruction and osteoproliferative changes of the metatarsal bones with periostal hyperostosis close to the talus. There was an increased 99m-Tc-MDP uptake in the early phase of bone scintigraphy. Fibrosis of the marrow with stimulated osteoclastic resorption and the presence of detritus synovialitis were visible in a bone and joint biopsy. All known infectious, neurologic, metabolic and malignant diseases, which affect the bone and joints, were excluded.

Os autores relatam um caso de osteoartropatia hipertrófica do tipo primária em paciente de 29 anos de idade, com dores articulares e aumento de volume das extremidades há 15 anos. Ao exame físico apresentava baqueteamento dos dedos e unhas em "vidro de relógio". A osteoartropatia hipertrófica foi considerada como primária porque foram excluídas todas as causas da forma secundária. As principais alterações radiológicas foram: espessamento das camadas corticais dos ossos tubulares e reação periosteal contínua do tipo lamelar. Não foram notadas alterações dos espaços articulares.

Abstract
Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP), a rare genodermatosis, occurred in a 38-year-old Indian male. He presented with progressive thickening of the skin on the face and scalp of 15 years duration. Widening of his wrists and ankles and broadening of the fingers and toes had also developed since then. He was born of a consanguineous marriage and had no family history of a similar disorder. He had the typical findings of complete form of PDP including cutis verticis gyrata, coarse facial features, clubbing of the digits in the skin, and periostosis and cortical thickening at the distal ends of long bones of the extremities and small bones of the hands and feet. PDP has two different forms--primary and secondary. These two entities are differentiated by family history and presence or absence of a primary lesion, usually in the lungs. Clinically, in secondary PDP, the cutaneous findings (pachydermia, seborrhoea, oiliness) are less severe than primary PDP; osteoarthropathy is more severe and painful in secondary PDP, especially with congenital heart disease. The present case was suffering from primary PDP that had expressed itself in its complete form.

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is characterized by finger clubbing, periostosis and arthritis. The pathogenesis of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is still uncertain. Earlier studies have been focused on the potential role of platelet and endothelium in the pathogenesis of HOA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the circulating levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1), beta-thromboglobulin (beta-TG) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in 21 HOA patients. The circulating levels of ET-1, beta-TG were significantly higher in HOA patients vs healthy controls, but not vs controls with lung diseases. On the contrary, PDGF was significantly higher in HOA patients vs healthy controls and vs subjects with lung diseases. These findings suggest that "endothelium/platelet unit" may play a role in the pathogenesis of HOA, and PDGF could induce the changes observed in HOA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate collagen synthesis in skin fibroblasts from patients with primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA), a disorder characterized clinically by skin thickening. METHODS Collagenase-digestible protein, messenger RNA (mRNA) levels, and transcriptional activity of the alpha 1(I) procollagen gene were assessed in skin-derived fibroblast lines. RESULTS Compared with fibroblasts from uninvolved skin, fibroblasts from involved skin had elevated levels of collagen synthesis and alpha 1(I) procollagen mRNA, and increased transcriptional activity of the alpha 1(I) procollagen promoter. CONCLUSION Abnormalities of collagen synthesis in fibroblasts from patients with primary HOA can be accounted for, at least in part, by a trans-activated up-regulation of collagen transcription.

Abstract
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a congenital malformation that has been linked to diverse heritable and chromosomal disorders. Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a rare heritable syndrome in which digital clubbing and periostosis become evident without any underlying illness. The objective of this article is to describe four patients with coexisting PDA and primary HOA. Surgical closure of the ductus showed no effect on the skeletal changes. Primary HOA should be included among the heritable disorders that may be associated with PDA.

Abstract
Two patients with pachydermoperiostosis were studied in whom the predominant features at presentation were severe and disabling knee and ankle joint pain in association with distal long bone pain. Analysis of synovial fluid from the knee joints showed non-inflammatory changes. In one patient a bicortical iliac crest bone biopsy specimen, taken after labelling with demeclocycline, showed appositional rates which were increased in cortical bone but reduced in trabecular bone. This mismatching resulted in trabecular osteoporosis, which occurred in association with increased numbers of osteoclasts, findings which suggest differential functional changes affecting the two bony envelopes.
