| description | Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare hereditary disorder that is
characterised by pachydermia (thickening of the facial skin and/
or scalp), and periostosis (swelling of the periarticular tissue and
a subperiosteal new bone formation). Other associated features
are arthralgia, polyarthritis, clubbing, seborrhoea, hyperhidrosis,
hypertrophic gastropathy, peptic ulcer and gyanecomastia. Eyelid
ptosis which is caused by thickened eyelids (blepharoptosis) is
a less common association. We are hereby reporting a patient
with a complete form of Pachydermoperiostosis, wherein the
presenting feature was bilateral ptosis. |
