Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HO) is a disorder which has been defined for the first time in 1889 byMarie and Bamberger. It is usually characterized by clinical pulmonary disease (6). Classical triad includesfinger clubbing, arthritis and pain caused by periostitis especially in the long bones (18). Laboratory findingsvary according to the underlying disease and usually high levels of erythrocyte sedimentation rateand C-reactive protein exist (13). A 52 year old male patient with bilateral lower extremity pain and swellingin his right elbow was admitted to our hospital. After physical examination and laboratory results,HO was diagnosed. The patient is discussed under the light of the current literature.
