Pachydermodactyly: case report including clinical and histopathologic diagnostic pitfalls. Journal of cutaneous pathology Barnes, L. A., Bae, G. H., Lewis, M. A., Rieger, K. E. 2018

Abstract

Pachydermodactyly is a rare, benign condition characterized by swelling and thickening of the periarticular skin, most commonly at the proximal interphalangeal joints. Diagnosis is routinely made through correlation of clinical, histopathologic, and radiographic findings. Here we report a case of pachydermodactyly in a 25 year-old male, with emphasis on the clinical and histopathologic differential diagnosis and potential diagnostic pitfalls.
