DOIGT EN LORGNETTE AND CONCENTRIC BONE ATROPHY ASSOCIATED WITH HEALED YAWS OSTEITIS

Report of Two Cases

B. S. Jones 1

1 Princess Alice Orthopaedic Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa

Two cases are reported in which doigt en lorgnette was associated with features of long-standing yaws. Radiographs showed an unusual bone appearance, believed to be due to superimposition of concentric atrophy with focal dissolution of the distal bones on the lesions of healed yaws osteitis.
