N2 - The term, SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis) syndrome is an acronym to designate a clinico-radiologic entity with combination of skin, bone, and joint manifestations. We, herein, present a case of SAPHO syndrome in a 27-year-old man with pruritic, localized, crops of deep-seated pustules on both palms and soles for 2 years, and multiple joints pain including anterior upper chest pain for 3 years. Histopathologically, the palm showed a large intraepidermal cavity filled with many neutrophils, and many typical spongiform pustules at the wall of it. Radiographically, the left sternoclavicular joint showed synovitis, osteitis and hyperostosis.
