BERNAL-MACIAS, Santiago e GUALDRON-CHAPARRO, Karen. Interosseous atrophy beyond rheumatoid arthritis, a manifestation of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2022, vol.29, n.4, pp.347-349. Epub 15-Ago-2023. ISSN 0121-8123. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcreu.2020.12.002.
Interosseous atrophy of the hand is not an exclusive finding of rheumatoid arthritis, and in the case of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis it has a significant diagnostic and prognostic value. The physical examination and evidence of the "split hand" sign or sign of the double anatomical snuffbox is a finding that should alert the clinician to the need for complementary studies in order to rule out neurological pathology.
