Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is a rare disease that mimics the clinical and radiographical manifestations of acromegaly. Therefore, it should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses in the evaluation of acromegalic patients. In this study, we discussed a case of PDP in a 24-year-old simple worker working in a food industry factory and reviewed the work restrictions caused by the complications of the disease.
厚皮性骨膜病(PDP)是一种罕见疾病,其临床和影像学表现与肢端肥大症相似。因此,在评估肢端肥大症患者时,应将其视为鉴别诊断之一。在本研究中,我们讨论了一名在食品工厂工作的24岁普通工人患PDP的病例,并回顾了该疾病并发症所导致的工作限制。
