Preferred Label : Osteoperiostitis due to secondary yaws;
ICD-11 definition : Osteoperiostitis occurring during the course of secondary yaws typically presents
with nocturnal bone pain and swelling affecting either the proximal phalanges of the
?ngers (dactylitis) or the long bones (forearm, tibia or fibula). The process normally
affects several bones and is thus polyostotic; early bone changes are usually visible
by plain radiography and periosteal thickening is often palpable. In contrast with
the destructive osteitis of tertiary yaws, the osteoperiostitis of secondary yaws
is generally reversible following treatment.;
