McCune–Albright syndrome with craniofacial dysplasia: Clinical review and surgical management

BACKGROUND Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion related to an abnormal bone development and replacement by fibrous tissue. FD has three clinical patterns namely monostotic, polyostotic, and the McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). MAS is a rare genetic disorder (about 3% of all FD's) that comprises a triad of polyostotic FD, café-au-lait skin macules, and precocious puberty. MAS c...

McCune Albright Syndrome ( MAS ) - polyostotic fibrous dysplasia

A case of craniofacial fibrous dysplasia associated with McCune-Albright syndrome lost to follow-up.

McCune-Albright syndrome is a rare fibro-osseous syndrome characterised by a classic triad of fibrous dysplasia (FD), café-au-lait macules and various underlying endocrinopathies. This case report describes how a patient was rediagnosed by a general dental practitioner following attendance for a routine dental examination. The patient had been previously diagnosed with the condition 28 years ea...

Sinonasal disease in polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and McCune-Albright Syndrome.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To characterize the spectrum, symptoms, progression, and effects of endocrine dysfunction on sinonasal disease in polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) and McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review. METHODS A prospectively followed cohort of subjects with PFD/MAS underwent a comprehensive evaluation that included otolaryngologic and endocrine eval...

McCune-Albright syndrome and the extraskeletal manifestations of fibrous dysplasia

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is sometimes accompanied by extraskeletal manifestations that can include any combination of café-au-lait macules, hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies, such as gonadotropin-independent precocious puberty, hyperthyroidism, growth hormone excess, FGF23-mediated renal phosphate wasting, and/or Cushing syndrome, as well as other less common features. The combination of any of t...
