A case of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPOA) is described, together with synovial fluid cytology and synovial histology. A new approach to therapy is described using adrenergic blockade. The effectiveness of this regime was assessed by quantitative thermography. The successful results support the neurogenic hypothesis for the aetiology of HPOA.
本文描述了一例肥厚性肺骨关节病(HPOA)病例,并介绍了滑液细胞学和滑膜组织学检查结果。文中还描述了一种使用肾上腺素能阻滞剂的新治疗方法。通过定量热成像评估了该治疗方案的有效性。成功的结果支持了HPOA病因的神经源性假说。
