Hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPOA) is a well-documented complication of pulmonary malignancy and cystic fibrosis (CF). However, HPOA associated with exacerbations of non-CF bronchiectasis has only been reported once previously in an adolescent. We describe a case of an adult patient with bronchiectasis and HPOA, whose joint symptoms flared during pulmonary exacerbations and improved with treatment of each exacerbation.
