The thickened folded skin of Touraine-Solente-Golé syndrome can result in cosmetic and functional deformities. The treatment of pachydermoperiostosis is usually centered around improving the cosmetic appearance through plastic surgery. We describe the case of a 27-year-old male who had pachydermoperiostosis with a leonine facies that was managed with frontal rhytidectomy. A greatly improved cosmetic appearance was achieved with this procedure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
