Foot Ankle Int. 1996 May;17(5):283-5. doi: 10.1177/107110079601700508.

Abstract

A 39-year-old woman with restriction of movement and macrodactyly of the great toes was found to have severe juxta-articular multiple osteophytosis of the lower limbs. The pathogenesis of this unusual condition is unknown. It may be a variant of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis.
