HYPERTROPHIC OSTEOARTHROPATHY AND PRETIBIAL MYXEDEMA ASSOCIATED WITH GRAVES' DISEASE

Abstract
In the subject of this case report, hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and pretibial myxedema developed following an induced remission of Graves'' disease. Seven similar cases found in the literature are reviewed. It is felt that this association is more than fortuitous and that hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is a rare manifestation of Graves'' disease that is probably independent of the hyperthyroid manifestations.
