Endocrine 2024:10.1007/s12020-024-03804-5. [PMID: 38564085 DOI: 10.1007/s12020-024-03804-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of bisphosphonates (BP) in hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HPOA) is unclear. We presented a case of primary HPOA and performed a systematic review of literature on the effect of BP on treatment response in primary and secondary HPOA. METHODS The study was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022343786). We performed a PubMed literature search that restricted to the English language. We included patients diagnosed with primary or secondary HPOA who received BP. The primary endpoint assessed was the effectiveness of BP on response to pain or arthritis. Secondary outcomes included timing, degree, and duration of response, comparison to other HPOA therapies, impact of BP on radiology, bone scan, bone turnover markers, and adverse effects of BP. RESULTS Literature search retrieved only case reports. Forty-five patients (21 primary, 24 secondary HPOA) had received BP. Majority(88.3%) experienced improvement in pain or arthritis. Response was gradual for primary HPOA and within a median of 3 to 7 days for secondary HPOA after treatment with BP. Most patients had reduced bone scan uptake after BP. When other HPOA therapies were tried, half responded to BP after not having previously responded to other therapies, while a third received the treatments concurrently, making it difficult to attribute treatment response to a drug. Reporting of other secondary outcomes was very heterogenous and qualitative to draw conclusions. No major adverse effects have been reported for BP in HPOA. CONCLUSION Bisphosphonates provide an effective and safe treatment option for primary and secondary HPOA. However, there is a lack of randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
A 71-year-old male with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy was referred to our hospital because of a nocturnal fever and tenderness stretching from the left parotid region to the left front neck, in which antibacterials were ineffective. He was diagnosed with Takayasu's arteritis following findings of contrast-enhanced computed tomography and neck ultrasound. This is the first report to describe the development of Takayasu's arteritis after a prolonged course of typical hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, and the proposed hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and Takayasu's arteritis have common underlying pathophysiological factors.

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is a paraneoplastic syndrome and is considered an important secondary cause of rheumatic disease. It typically manifests as tibial and femoral bone pain, with arthralgia or synovitis of adjacent joints also being common findings. Usually, musculoskeletal symptoms accompany the course of the disease, disappearing with treatment of the neoplasm and recurring coincidentally with the tumor relapse. The authors report a case of a patient with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, whose etiological study allowed the diagnosis of a lung adenocarcinoma, particularly challenging due to the patient's young age and the absence of associated symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to provide a detailed evaluation of a case of secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) and to explore insights into the presence and consequences of disease in medieval rural Italy. MATERIALS The skeleton of a male (US 4405) with an estimated age at death of 51-69 years excavated from the medieval rural site of Pieve di Pava (Siena, Italy). METHODS Macroscopic and radiological (x-ray, CT) analyses were performed. RESULTS Symmetrical extensive periosteal new bone formation on the diaphyseal and metaphyseal regions of this individual's long bones; the lower limbs were more extensively and severely affected than the upper limbs and the distal segments were more severely altered in comparison to the proximal ones. CONCLUSIONS The macroscopic and radiological features are highly consistent with a diagnosis of secondary HOA. SIGNIFICANCE The excellent state of preservation allowed the evaluation of rarely noted skeletal manifestations of HOA and provided insight into aspects of rural life in medieval Italy. LIMITATIONS Molecular analysis was not successful in sequencing the aDNA of tuberculosis, therefore the underlying primary cause of secondary HOA, whether pulmonary or extrapulmonary, remains obscure in this case. SUGGESTION FOR THE FUTURE RESEARCH It is advisable to regularly revisit the data available from osteoarchaeological collections in order to identify further cases of HOA, along with to further investigate the known cases to search for the underlying primary disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant neoplasms are a well-recognized global public health concern, with significant impacts on human health and quality of life. The interplay between tumors and autoimmune rheumatic diseases is complex, and the resulting tumor-associated rheumatic diseases represent a rare and intricate group of conditions that occur in the context of malignant tumors. In addition, various rheumatic diseases can arise as a consequence of oncology treatment. These diseases present with intricate clinical manifestations and pathological features, often rendering them challenging to diagnose and impacting patients' quality of life. Despite this, they have yet to be fully recognized. METHODS This article presents a literature review of published original articles and review articles concerning paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes and rheumatic diseases associated with cancer treatment. We conducted a comprehensive literature search in PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar databases, excluding duplicated and irrelevant studies. In cases of duplicated research, we selected articles with higher impact factors for the review. RESULTS This review focuses on the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of paraneoplastic rheumatic diseases, as well as the pathogenesis of these diseases. Additionally, we summarize the autoimmune rheumatic diseases associated with cancer treatment. Ultimately, the goal of this review is to enhance recognition and improve the management of autoimmune rheumatic diseases related to tumors.

Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA), manifested with digital clubbing, tubular bone periostosis, and large joint synovial effusions, exists in two forms: primary, which is the rarest form, and secondary. The latter is frequently associated with lung diseases and, in some cases, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is thus expressed in the form of a paraneoplastic syndrome. We report the case of a male smoker who was presented with secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and was subsequently diagnosed with primary adenocarcinoma of the lung. A 63-year-old male with a history of ischemic heart disease and heavy tobacco consumption (60 pack-years) presented with painful osteoarthritis of all four extremities. A chest computed tomography (CT), a positron emission tomography (PET) scan, and a bronchoscopy revealed a 9 cm mass within the right lower lobe without mediastinal adenopathy. Bilateral lower limb X-rays revealed osteoarthropathy of the tibia. A right lower lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection were performed. Final histopathology analysis reported an advanced mixed pulmonary adenocarcinoma. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 6. This report has highlighted the importance of clinical awareness of the association between HOA and carcinoma of the lung.

Abstract
Primary pachydermoperiostosis is a rare genetic disease affecting the skin and musculoskeletal system. In contrast to secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, primary pachydermoperiostosis is considered a benign condition. While a variety of associated abnormalities have been described in this form, any association with tumors was previously reported in the literature. We hereby describe the first case of a 20-year-old man with primary pachydermoperiostosis revealed by a knee synovial tumor.

Abstract
Association of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) with pulmonary tuberculosis is rarely reported, especially with smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis (SNPT), in which its diagnosis is a challenge. We used a systematic approach to analyze all relevant literature reviews, and we identified only two cases of HOA associated with pulmonary tuberculosis in the last 10 years. We report the case of a 36-year-old man who presented with bilateral symmetric polyarthralgia and digital clubbing. Laboratory exams associated elevated acute phase reactants with negative immunological examinations. Two series of three acid-fast Bacillus (AFB) smear microscopy in sputum, separated by 15 days of broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy, were negative. A sputum culture was negative for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A chest X-ray and computed tomography (CT) showed an apical pulmonary cavity. Plain X-ray and bone scintigraphy revealed periostosis of the tubular bones. Therefore, the diagnosis of HOA associated with probable SNPT was made. HOA symptoms had remitted after 3 months of antitubercular therapy. After 7 months of treatment, chest CT and bone scintigraphy showed a regression of the pulmonary cavity and disappearance of periostosis. The search for tuberculosis in front of any HOA seems to be justified in our epidemiological context.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Digital clubbing and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) are long-standing clinical entities, but their prevalence have not been synthesized. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of digital clubbing and HOA in people with existing medical conditions.We comprehensively searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science to select studies addressing HOA or digital clubbing and published through March 23, 2021. Summary estimates of the prevalence were derived through random-effects meta-analysis and narrative synthesis. The review protocol has been registered with PROSPERO, CRD42021243934.Of 3973 records, we included 142 studies. In adults, the pooled prevalence of digital clubbing was 33.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 16.6-52.8), 31.3% (95% CI, 22.4-41.1), 27% (95% CI, 9.4-49.5), and 22.8% (95% CI, 10.8-37.6) in subjects with intestinal diseases, interstitial lung diseases, infective endocarditis, and hepatic diseases, respectively. In children and adolescents, the pooled prevalence of digital clubbing was 29.1% (95% CI, 19.4-39.9), 23% (95% CI, 9.0-41.1), 19.5% (95% CI, 4.1-42.4), and 17.1% (95% CI, 9.5-26.5) in subjects with human immunodeficiency virus infection, hemoglobinopathies, cystic fibrosis, and tuberculosis. The pooled prevalence of HOA was 10.1% (95% CI, 2.0-23.1) in adults with cancers, and 5% (95% CI, 2.5-8.2) in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis.In conclusion, the prevalence of digital clubbing varied across disease groups in both adults and children. Full-spectrum HOA was mostly reported in adults with liver disease and cancers, and in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis.

Abstract
A 25-year-old male with end-stage cystic fibrosis (CF) with genotype F508del/F508del presented to the clinic complaining of bilateral knee and ankle pain. He had severe lung disease (forced expiratory volume 1 {FEV1} 19% of predicted), chronic colonization with achromobacter, malnutrition, and CF-related diabetes. On physical examination, he was found to have bilateral knee swelling as well as pain on flexion and extension of the wrists and ankles without erythema or warmth. He was empirically started on prednisone and tramadol; however, at a three-month follow-up visit, he remained symptomatic. He was sent for a whole-body bone scan, which was consistent with hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPOA). He was started on highly effective modulator therapy with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor and symptoms spontaneously resolved without further intervention.

Magalhães BM, Catarino L, Carreiro I, Gomes RAMP, Gaspar RR, Matos VMJ, Santos AL. Differential diagnosis of a diffuse sclerosis in an identified male skull (early 20th century Coimbra, Portugal): A multimethodological approach for the identification of osteosclerotic dysplasias in skeletonized individuals. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PALEOPATHOLOGY 2021; 34:134-141. [PMID: 34243133 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpp.2021.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2020] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work aims to discuss the difficulties in diagnosing osteosclerotic changes in skeletonized individuals and to raise awareness of osteosclerotic dysplasias as a group of rare ancient diseases. MATERIALS The skull of a 62-year-old male individual from the International Exchange Skull Collection, curated by the University of Coimbra, who died in 1928 presenting albuminous nephritis (Bright disease)/uraemia as the registered cause of death. METHODS The skull was macroscopically and radiologically examined and bone elemental analysis was investigated. The genealogy and medical records of the individual were also searched. RESULTS The lesions are in accordance with an osteosclerotic process possibly pointing to osteosclerosis, osteosclerotic metaphyseal dysplasia, or dysosteosclerosis, but osteoclasia with hyperphosphatasia, endosteal hyperostosis, sclerosteosis, or osteopathia striata with cranial sclerosis cannot be ruled out. CONCLUSIONS Representativeness of the skeleton is a crucial feature in diagnosing rare diseases and, to avoid a misdiagnosis, the final diagnosis should include a group of diseases rather than a definite disease. SIGNIFICANCE Difficulties in diagnosing rare diseases are discussed and best approaches in the study osteosclerotic dysplasias in skeletonized individuals are offered in the light of current clinical knowledge. LIMITATIONS The absence of the postcranial skeleton and of pathognomonic lesions associated with osteosclerotic dysplasias limits diagnosis. Although rare diseases often have a genetic basis, specific genetic testing for the diagnosis of rare diseases in paleopathological cases are not yet available. SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER RESEARCH Future genetic studies might help narrow down the diagnosis.
