Pachydermoperiostosis, also known as Touraine-Solente-Golé syndrome, is an uncommon hereditary condition. This condition includes skin thickening (pachydermia), abnormalities of the bones (periostosis), and digital clubbing (acropachy). We present a case of complete pachydermoperiostosis who presented with end-stage kidney disease. Chronic tubulointerstitial disease secondary to long-term analgesics and complementary and alternative medications was considered the likely etiology for renal dysfunction. The patient underwent serial hemodialysis followed by arteriovenous fistula surgery. In view of significant synovial inflammation, he was also given a selective COX-2 inhibitor. Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare condition, and although there is no therapy for the condition itself, medicinal or surgical interventions can effectively control its secondary effects.

UNASSIGNED: Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP), or primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, is a rare autosomal dominant disease with primary clinical features of pachydermia (thickening of skin) and periostosis (new bone formation). Keloid scar formation is also rather obscure, and some scientists have claimed that keloid scars contain an excessive amount of fibroblasts compared with normal skin as well as a dense mass of irregularly deposited connective tissues.
UNASSIGNED: A 25-year-old man exhibited extensive skin folding on his face, a gyrus-like scalp, depressed nasolabial folds, and keloids. Symptoms began at 18 years of age, progressing insidiously. Additionally, he experienced clubbing of fingers and toes, joint pain, muscle soreness, and hyperhidrosis. Radiographic examinations revealed thickened bone and cystic regions. Diagnosed with complete primary PDP and facial keloid scars, he underwent skin dermabrasion, biopsies, and a comprehensive treatment involving, botulinum toxin injections, 5-fluorouracil, and a carbon dioxide lattice laser.
UNASSIGNED: PDP presents challenges due to its unclear etiology but stabilizes over time in most cases. Comprehensive treatment strategies, including dermabrasion and a combination of intralesional therapies, are effective in managing keloids in PDP patients. This case contributes to the understanding of managing rare diseases and underscores the importance of personalized approaches to improve therapeutic outcomes in patients with complete primary PDP and concurrent keloids.

UNASSIGNED: Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a syndrome characterised by the triad of pachydermia, digital clubbing and periostosis of long bones and its scarce incidence and similarity in clinical features with acromegaly makes the diagnosis challenging. The elevated PGE2 levels have been hypothesised as one of its mechanisms and therapies have been targeted to inhibit this prostaglandin.
UNASSIGNED: A 25-year-old man with no comorbidities presented to OPD with a 10-year history of bilateral pain and swelling of the hands and feets associated with hyperhidrosis, grade IV clubbing and marked skin thickening on his forehead. X-rays revealed hyperostosis of the metacarpals, proximal and middle phalanges and periosteal bone formation with cortical thickening of the ankle joint. Tests done to rule out differentials such as thyroid acropachy, acromegaly, psoriatic arthritis were normal and a clinical diagnosis of PDP, a rare genetic disease characterised by pachyderma, digital clubbing and periostosis was made.
UNASSIGNED: The patient was managed conservatively with etoricoxib for 6 months on a follow-up basis. The symptoms were improving and a repeat X-ray showed partial improvement of soft tissue thickening and periostosis.
UNASSIGNED: PDP is a rare diagnosis with no clear consensus on a management approach. Its management with selective COX-2 inhibitors such as etoricoxib should be considered but its long-term effects should be studied further.

Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare genetic disease known as primary or idiopathic hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA)/Touraine-Solente-Gole syndrome. It is an autosomal dominant or recessive disorder comprising digital clubbing, periostosis, hyperhidrosis, and pachydermia (thickening of facial skin). Ocular manifestations are uncommon; however, blepharoptosis may occur. This case presented with severe bilateral ptosis due to the disease progression. A large 20 mm upper lid resection with levator advancement was performed to improve his ability to see. This is the first reported case of pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) in Jamaica. We present a rare case of pachydermoperiostosis with severe blepharoptosis, who attained a good result with surgical intervention.

UNASSIGNED: 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.
UNASSIGNED: 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.

UNASSIGNED: We describe a case of a young man with features of pachydermoperiostosis and spondyloarthropathy. By describing this rarity, we aim to help build a database for future studies and construct a management plan that rheumatologists and clinicians can use.
UNASSIGNED: This is the first case report in Iraq describing the combination of pachydermoperiostosis and ankylosing spondylitis. We report this interesting association in a 23-year-old male who presented with inflammatory back pain, coarse facial features, clubbing, signs of enthesitis, limitation of spine movement, and clinical and radiographic signs of sacroiliitis.

Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare disease that mimics the clinical and radiographical manifestations of acromegaly. Therefore, it should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses in the evaluation of acromegalic patients. In this study, we discussed a case of PDP in a 24-year-old simple worker working in a food industry factory and reviewed the work restrictions caused by the complications of the disease.

Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare hereditary disease characterized by digital clubbing, pachydermia, and periostosis. We describe a Japanese male patient with PDP who was differentially diagnosed with acromegaly by identification of compound heterozygous variants in SLCO2A1. Recent studies have reported various clinical manifestations, as well as skeletal and dermal features, in patients with PDP. Genetic testing provided not only PDP diagnosis and differentiation from acromegaly, but also information about possible complications and comorbidities throughout life.
