The purpose of this study is to determine whether COX-2 inhibitor is effective in the treatment of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy
Patients with primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy(PHO) were diagnosed based on clinical manifestations and symptoms. PHO patients were treated with COX-2 inhibitor after signing informed consent. The extend of alleviation, the change of the markers on prostaglandin E metabolic pathway and the adverse event on different time points were recorded to identify the efficacy and safety.
656 studies on the registry are indexed under Hypertrophy; 87 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 30 is below the median of 50 across 460 interventional studies indexed under Hypertrophy.

Circumference of knee joint change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment
During the circumference of knee joint (CKJ) assessment, the patient was standing straight and the knee was extended as much as possible. The tester stood closest to the examined leg and used a tape to measure the circumference just at the base of the patella. Both legs were measured twice and the average value was used as CKJ.
