[The acquired hyperostosis syndrome. Synthesis of 13 personal observations of sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis and 300 cases from the literature. 1].
Sterno-costo-clavicular hyperostosis (SCCH) is the most common manifestation of a syndrome, consisting of increased bone metabolism, mostly new bone formation and heterotopic ossification of fibrous tissue, which we have characterised as the acquired hyperostosis syndrome. In part I we discuss the terminology, radiological appearances, scintigraphy, clinical and laboratory findings, bacteriology, histology, nosology, complications, treatment and differential diagnosis of SCCH. Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is regarded as a phenotype of SCCH, depending on the age. CRMO occurs in children, adolescents and young adults, SCCH predominantly in middle-aged and elderly adults.
