Abstract
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is defined by a combination of cutaneous, osseous, articular, and acromelic features, which exhibit proportional variability. Although rare, awareness of this condition is crucial due to its potential association with neoplasms, especially of pulmonary origin. We report the case of a 58-year-old male patient in whom hypertrophic osteoarthropathy was diagnosed as a secondary manifestation of lung carcinoma.
