FINGER CLUBBING -- DIAGNOSIS
SCHAMROTH SIGN
Absence of a closed triangular space described by the nails of two index
fingers when their distal phalanges are held in dorsal opposition
PHALANGEAL DEPTH RATIO
In normal fingers, the distal phalangeal depth should be smaller than the
interphalangeal depth; this relationship is reversed in the finger with clubbing
.
Since calipers may not be readily available, physicians may estimate the
phalangeal depth ratio
