摘要：
Knuckle pads is a syndrome characterized by the presence of multiple nodules located on the extensor side of the interphalangeal or metacarpophalangeal joints. Several conditions can be confused with Knuckle pads. We describe a case of a 47-years-old man who developed multiple bilateral roundish nodules located in the skin over the dorsal and lateral interphalangeal joints in both hands.
