Résumé
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a rare and intricate hereditary disease. The appearance and functional deformity of the forehead caused by thickened folds are the main clinical manifestations of patients with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. The cause of this disease is still unknown. Currently, surgical treatment has become one of the best strategies, mainly for improving the appearance of the forehead. There has been no literature report on the use of "W"-shaped skin flap resection for thickened forehead skin in patients with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. All cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in our department in the last 7 years, and previous literature on hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, were reviewed. A total of 5 cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in our department (mean age 21 years, all male patients) were reviewed. All patients underwent open surgery to remove the thickened skin on the forehead or the wrinkles and gyrus-shaped scalp. The jagged skin tissue was removed (8-9) cm × (1-2.5) cm × 0.5 cm. The folds and thickness of the frontal skin of the patients were greatly improved after the operation. Patient satisfaction with the treatment outcomes was unanimous. However, one case experienced a postoperative wound infection during follow-up. The utilization of the "W"-shaped excision technique allowed for the maximal removal of excessively diseased tissue, thereby facilitating a smoother resolution of the depression. A total of 5 cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy were treated in our department, and all of them underwent frontal skin "W"-shaped excision, which was safe, feasible, and practical, and the postoperative results were satisfactory. This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

All cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in our department in the last 7 years, and previous literature on hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, were reviewed.

A total of 5 cases of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in our department (mean age 21 years, all male patients) were reviewed. All patients underwent open surgery to remove the thickened skin on the forehead or the wrinkles and gyrus-shaped scalp. The jagged skin tissue was removed (8-9) cm × (1-2.5) cm × 0.5 cm.
