Abstract

Touraine-Solente-Gole' syndrome, also known as pachydermoperiostosis or primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is a rare familial disorder generally seen in males. Although it presents with characteristic morphological and radiological features, this is an uncommon diagnosis and is entertained only once other causes of secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy are carefully excluded.
