A 70-year-old man with florid symptoms of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy for over a year presented without radiographic evidence of new bone formation. His symptoms improved after exploratory thoracotomy, but recurred with lesser severity a year later with tumour recurrence on the chest wall. Absence of new bone formation was again demonstrated radiologically as well as by isotope scan.
一名70岁男性,患有肥厚性骨关节病明显症状达一年多,影像学检查未发现新骨形成的证据。 exploratory thoracotomy(此词有误,推测可能是“exploratory thoracoscopy”,即“胸腔镜探查术”)后症状改善,但一年后症状较轻地复发,同时胸壁出现肿瘤复发。影像学及同位素扫描再次显示无新骨形成。 (注:原文中“exploratory thoracotomy”可能有误,根据语境推测为“exploratory thoracoscopy”更合理,但按照要求未做修改直接翻译。)
