A boy with McCune-Albright syndrome associated with GH secreting pituitary microadenoma. Clinical findings and response to treatment.

The McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is a sporadic rare disease first described in 1936 by McCune and separately by Albright. MAS is characterized by a triad of physical signs: café-au-lait spots, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and autonomous endocrine hyperfunction. MAS is predominantly observed in girls and is rarely reported in males. We report the case of a 9-year old boy with gonadotropin independent precocious puberty, café-au-lait spots, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and growth hormone hypersecretion.
