McCune-Albright syndrome: Report of a case
Authors
Abstract:
A 29- year old female with bone pain and history of precocious puberty was referred for bone scintigraphy. On physical examination café au lait macular spots were noted on her neck, buttocks and left leg. Bone scan showed multiple areas of intense increased activity which was in favour of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. Considering the presence of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, precocious puberty and café au lait macular spots, MacCune-Albright syndrome was confirmed in this patient.

McCune-Albright syndrome. Report of a case.
The McCune Albright syndrome is seldom encountered and rarely reported in dental literature. It represents a special category of polyostic fibrous displasia associated with skin pigmentation and endocrine disturbances. We describe the case of a 9-year-old boy with the McCune Albright syndrome, who was treated for a mandibular osteolytic lesion.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign bone lesion of unknown etiology. Bone involvement usually is solitary (monostotic). Multiple forms (polyostotic) associated with extra skeletal symptoms, particularly cutaneous pigmentation, endocrine dysfunction and precocious puberty is called McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). We report the case of a 40-year-old man who presented with left mandibular body expansion...

Four year old girl was evaluated for precocious puberty. Breast development and pubic hair growth had started at age 2½ year, and had been followed by vaginal bleeding resembling periods. Gaf-au-lait spots were present in most of her skin surface. Bone x-rays showed multiple cysts in pelvis and the metaphysis of femur. Diagnosis of McCune-Albright syndrome was made. Concentrations of all hormon...

McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare, heterogenous, clinical condition caused by a rare genetic mutation. The disorder is more common in females and is characterized by a triad of cutaneous, bone and endocrine abnormalities. We describe a girl patient with MAS having precocious puberty and multiple cafe-au-lait macules and deforming polyostotic fibrous dysplasia of bone. Clinical presentat...

INTRODUCTION McCune-Albright syndrome is a rare sporadic disease characterized by fibrous bone dysplasia, café-au-lait skin spots and variable hyperfunctional endocrinopathies. McCune-Albright syndrome is caused by somatic postzygotic activating mutations in the GNAS gene that produce a broad spectrum of effects. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of McCune-Albright syndrome with multi-organ ...
