ABSTRACT

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.


La atrofia de interóseos de la mano no es un hallazgo exclusivo de la artritis reumatoide, en el caso de la esclerosis lateral amiotrófica tiene un valor diagnóstico y pronóstico significativo, por lo que la exploración física y la evidencia del signo de la mano partida o signo de la doble tabaquera anatómica es un hallazgo que debe alertar al clínico de la necesidad de realizar estudios complementarios para descartar una enfermedad neurológica.
