Complete form of pachydermoperiostosis with good initial response to etoricoxib: A case report

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Pachydermoperiostosis is a rare genetic disorder that closely resembles acromegaly. Diagnosis is usually based on distinct clinical and radiological features. Oral etoricoxib therapy showed a good initial response in our patient. ABSTRACT: Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare genetic disorder with unclear etiopathogenesis. We report a case of a 38‐year‐old male who presented with classic features of PDP. Our patient showed a good initial response to etoricoxib therapy but the safety and efficacy over long‐term use are yet to be determined in further studies.
