Presentation
These data show that skin involvement in PDP is a prominent feature, that sometimes these symptoms may also be present in their relatives, and that endothelial and fibroblast activation is present in the skin. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pachydermoperiostosis can be classified as complete or incomplete depending on the extent of clinical presentation of symptoms and signs.[ 3 ] By definition, the patient presented here seemed to have the complete form of primary PDP since pachydermia, [archivesofrheumatology.org]

Course
- Severe Clinical Course
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. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Eyes
- Thickened Eyelids
Eyelid ptosis which is caused by thickened eyelids (blepharoptosis) is a less common symptom. We report the case of a patient with a complete form of pachydermoperiostosis with bilateral ptosis as presenting feature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The skin of his scalp and face was greasy and thickened and he had deep nasolabial folds, prominent nose, bilateral clubbing of fingers and toes. Ophthalmic examination revealed thickened eyelids with a clear vision. [jiaomr.in]
Associated clinical features that have been described include clubbing of digits, with or without paronychial thickening; arthralgias; seborrheic dermatitis; mechanical ptosis of thickened eyelids; periodontal disease; and palmoplantar hyperhidrosis. [doi.org]
On examination, the patient had coarse facial features, thickened eyelids and partial blepharoptosis. [edmcasereports.com]

- Bone Pain
Bone and joint pains are secondary to periostitis and are usually difficult to control. [doi.org]
Colchicine and retinoids improved skin manifestations, while tamoxifen and bisphosphonates significantly alleviated musculoskeletal symptoms, especially joint and bone pain. [medigoo.com]
Involvement of long bones may produce severe, incapacitating, or deep bone pain. Areas affected by periostitis are often painful and may be associated with overlying warmth or edema. [rheumaknowledgy.com]
Digital clubbing appeared, which was associated with arthritis, bone pain and inflammatory syndrome. X-rays and magnetic resonance imaging found periosteal apposition in the long bones; bone scintigraphy confirmed the HOA diagnosis. [karger.com]

- Loss of Lumbar Lordosis
A radiograph of the chest was unremarkable, while that of the spine revealed spondylotic changes with loss of lumbar lordosis. USG examination of the knee and ankle joints revealed mild effusion with thickened synovium bilaterally [Figure 6]. [doi.org]
Workup
Comprehensive diagnostic workup in search of secondary causes was launched. On laboratory examination, CBC exhibited mild anemia with hemoglobin of 12.2 g/dL, metabolic panel including liver enzymes were within normal range. [doi.org]
Thus, a comprehensive workup is required to rule out underlying conditions.[12] In the case of clubbing with periosteal proliferation, however, intrathoracic malignancies account for approximately 90 percent of cases.[11] Etiology. [jcadonline.com]
Treatment
RANKL is thought to increase bone resorption. [18] Bone formation and pain drug treatment [ edit ] Rheumatologic symptoms can be improved by treatment with bisphosphonates, such as pamidronate or risedronate. [en.wikipedia.org]
Neutrophilic chemotaxis, evaluated before starting the treatment and after 15 and 30 days of therapy, showed a progressive decrease of the initial very high index. [doi.org]
In combination with NSAIDs and colchicine, treatment with sulfasalazine was started in both cases, and methotrexate was added to the treatment regimen of the female patient at the end of the first year. The patients were found to be typical PHO. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology of HOA remains largely obscure. Several theories have been proposed including autonomic dysfunction with sympathetic bias ( 8 ) and dysfunctional fibroblast proliferation ( 9 ). [doi.org]
Further research is needed to clarify the pathophysiological mechanism of HOA as to appropriately direct therapy. [aianmodena.org]
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]
(Even though the exact pathophysiology of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is still not known, several pharmacologic modalities have shown improvement of the pain syndrome associated with HOA. [clinicaladvisor.com]
