Abstract

Digital clubbing usually occurs bilaterally; however, unilateral clubbing can be seen in hemiplegia and local vascular lesions. We highlight a case of unilateral digital clubbing due to putaminal hemorrhage. Further accumulation of cases will enable exploration of the mechanisms of clubbing.
