Etiology It results from proliferation of the connective tissues between the nail matrix and the distal phalanx and abnormal function of the nail matrix. [orpha.net]

Pathophysiology The exact cause for sporadic clubbing is unknown, and there are numerous theories as to its cause. [chdbabies.com]
Clubbing is thought to result from changes to the volume of interstitial fluid and increased blood flow to the area but the exact pathophysiology remains unknown. Primary clubbing may be idiopathic or be a feature of an inherited condition. [patient.info]
Pathophysiology Advances in the study of the pathogenesis have established that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is key. [bestpractice.bmj.com]
Prevention
Can clubbing be prevented? The only way to prevent clubbing is by taking steps to prevent and manage the underlying conditions that cause it. [healthline.com]
The results also suggest that existing drugs such as aspirin, which are already used to prevent PGE2 production, may be effective in reducing the painful symptoms of finger clubbing. [sciencedaily.com]
