Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis, a chronic chest wall inflammation, causes painful swelling. This review examines 251 cases, detailing clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings of this rare arthro-osteitis.

Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology and Osteology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis (SCH) is a chronic arthro-osteitis primarily affecting juxtasternal structures.
  • It presents clinically with painful swelling of the upper anterior chest wall.

Observation:

  • SCH is occasionally associated with pustulosis palmaris and plantaris.
  • Pathological findings include osteitis, periostitis, and new bone formation in periarticular structures.

Findings:

  • This review analyzes clinical, laboratory, and radiological data from 251 reported cases of SCH.
  • Two illustrative patient cases are presented in detail.

Implications:

  • Understanding SCH's diverse manifestations aids in accurate diagnosis and management.
