MCCUNE ALBRIGHT SYNDROME PRESENTING AS PRECOCIUS PUBERTY

Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

We describe a case of 5 years old female child, who presented to us with complaints of precocious puberty and skin pigmentation. Her x-rays done for ascertaining the age showed findings suggestive of fibrous dysplasia. Keeping in mind her presentation and x-rays, a diagnosis of McCune Albright syndrome was suspected and was later confirmed with some more laboratory and imaging findings.
