Abstract
Hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy is a clinical syndrome presenting with clubbing of the digits, periosteal proliferation of the long bones and arthritis. It is usually associated with chronic lung cancer, other chronic plumonary or pleural diseases. The symptoms of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy in hand could be confused with other painful hand conditions. The awareness of this disorder helps accurate diagnosis and treatment. The authors report a case of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy associated with non-small cell lung cancer.
