| hypertrophic osteoarthropathy | <radiology> Pulmonary, malignancy (bronchogenic carcinoma, lymphoma, metastasis), abscess, COPD / bronchiectasis, pleural, pleural fibroma (highest incidence of HOA, tho' rare itself), mesothelioma, cardiac, cyanotic congenital heart disease, GI, inflammatory disease (Crohn, UC), malabsorption (dysentery, lue, cirrhosis), ** causes symmetrical periosteal reaction (12 Dec 1998) |

| hypertrophic pyloric stenosis | <radiology> Not seen until 3 weeks, projectile vomiting, palpable olive in RUQ/epigastrium (12 Dec 1998) |
| hypertrophic rhinitis | Chronic rhinitis with permanent thickening of the mucous membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hypertrophic rosacea | A manifestation of severe acne rosacea resulting in significant enlargement of the nose and occurring primarily in men. It is caused by hypertrophy of the sebaceous glands and surrounding connective tissue. The nose is reddened and marked with numerous telangiectasias. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hypertrophic scar | An elevated scar resembling a keloid but which does not spread into surrounding tissues, is rarely painful, and regresses spontaneously; collagen bundles run parallel to the skin surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis | <cardiology> A congenital heart disease that results in abnormal thickening of the ventricular septum and left ventricular wall. Enlargement of the ventricular septum can result in ventricular outflow obstruction (subaortic stenosis) and eventual cardiomyopathy. (27 Sep 1997) |
| osteoarthropathy, primary hypertrophic | A conditioned chiefly characterised by thickening of the skin of the head and distal extremities, deep folds and furrows of the skin of the forehead, cheeks, and scalp, seborrhoea, hyperhidrosis, periostosis of the long bones, digital clubbing, and spadelike enlargement of the hands and feet. It is more prevalent in the male, and is usually first evident during adolescence. It is believed to be inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. (12 Dec 1998) |
| osteoarthropathy, secondary hypertrophic | Symmetrical osteitis of the four limbs, chiefly localised to the phalanges and the terminal epiphyses of the long bones of the forearm and leg, sometimes extending to the proximal ends of the limbs and the flat bones, and accompanied by dorsal kyphosis and joint involvement. It is often secondary to chronic conditions of the lungs and heart. (12 Dec 1998) |
| familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy | Familial occurrence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy exhibiting an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. Familial cardiomyopathy of various kinds occurs with autosomal dominant inheritance. There is also an asymmetrical form affecting the ventricles and the interventricular septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adventitial neuritis | Inflammation of the sheath of a nerve. See: perineuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ascending neuritis | Inflammation progressing upward along a nerve trunk in a direction away from the periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axial neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| brachial neuritis | neuralgic amyotrophy |
| parenchymatous neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
