Displasia fibrosa poliostótica - síndrome de McCune-Albright: reporte de un caso / Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia - McCune-Albright syndrome: a case report / Displasia fibrosa poliostótica - síndrome de McCune-Albright: relato de um caso

Resumen: Introducción: la displasia fibrosa poliostótica es una patología de muy baja prevalencia, por lo que su diagnóstico pasa desapercibido en la mayoría de los casos. Cuando se asocia a endocrinopatías o a lesiones cutáneas hiperpigmentadas corresponde al síndrome de McCune-Albright. Caso clínico: escolar de 8 años, sexo femenino, que presentó una fractura patológica de fémur izquierdo traumática, en la cual se diagnosticó una displasia fibrosa poliostótica. Por presentarse acompañada de pubertad precoz periférica configura el denominado síndrome de McCune-Albright. El control y tratamiento fue multidisciplinario. El equipo de traumatología realizó osteosíntesis con placa y tornillos de la lesión ósea con evolución a la consolidación en plazos habituales (tres meses). A los seis meses de seguimiento la niña se encuentra sin dolor y sin repercusiones funcionales para la vida diaria. Del punto de vista endocrinológico se realizó tratamiento de su pubertad precoz con inhibidores de la aromatasa con el fin de mejorar su talla final y evitar repercusiones psicológicas y emocionales. En este estudio se analizan características de esta patología y su pronóstico vital y funcional.

Summary: Introduction: polyostotic fibrous dysplasia is a low prevalence disease, and for this reason, it often goes undetected. When associated to endocrinopathies and/or hyperpigmented skin lesions we speak about McCune Albright syndrome. Clinical case: eight-year old school girl who presented pathological fracture of the left femur, which was diagnosed as polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. As it was accompanied by peripheral precocious puberty it constituted an indicative clinical picture of the so-called McCune Albright. Control and treatment were multidisciplinary. The traumatology team performed osteosynthesis with plaques and nails to fix the bone lesion, and evolution consolidated in a regular time frame (3 months). Upon six months follow-up, the girl has no pain and presents no functional repercussion in daily life. From the endocrinological perspective, the girl received precocious puberty treatment with aromatase inhibitors with the purpose of improving her final size and avoid psychological and emotional implications. The study presents the characteristics of this condition, as well as its vital and functional prognosis.

Resumo: Introdução: a displasia fibrosa poliostótica é uma doença de prevalência muito baixa, por isso seu diagnóstico passa despercebido na maioria dos casos. Quando associada a endocrinopatias e / ou lesões cutâneas hiperpigmentadas, corresponde à síndrome de McCune Albright. Caso clínico: estudante do sexo feminino, 8 anos, com quadro de fratura patológica traumática do fêmur esquerdo, com diagnóstico de displasia fibrosa poliostótica. Por estar acompanhada de puberdade precoce periférica, configura a chamada síndrome de McCune Albright. O controle e o tratamento foram multidisciplinares. A equipe de trauma realizou osteossíntese de placa e parafuso da lesão óssea com progressão à consolidação nos prazos usuais (3 meses). Aos 6 meses de seguimento, a paciente não apresenta dor e tampouco repercussões funcionais no dia a dia. Do ponto de vista endocrinológico, sua puberdade precoce foi tratada com inibidores da aromatase para melhorar sua altura final e evitar repercussões psicológicas e emocionais. Este estudo analisa as características desta patologia, seu prognóstico vital e funcional.

Pubertad precoz periférica / Peripheral precocious puberty

Introducción: El síndrome de Mc Cune-Albright (SMA) es una rara entidad asociada con la displasia fibrosa poliostótica, con la presencia de manchas de color café con leche y también con la hiperfunción endocrina. La alteración hormonal más frecuente es la pubertad precoz. El SMA se debe a mutaciones activadoras del gen GNAS1. Objetivo: Describir las características clínicas de una paciente con síndrome de Mc Cune-Albright con una pubertad precoz. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión de la historia clínica como fuente primaria y fueron incorporados todos los elementos clínicos, bioquímicos, imagenológicos y genéticos que conformaron la valoración integral de la paciente. Presentación de caso: Se presenta un caso poco frecuente de síndrome de Mc Cune-Albright en una niña de siete años de edad con mamas Tanner II-III, sangrado vaginal, vello axilar y pubiano escaso, manchas café con leche y lesiones óseas. Lleva tratamiento con tamoxifeno, lo que ha logrado mantener frenada la progresión del desarrollo puberal. Conclusiones: Aunque esta entidad es de carácter benigno y la prevalencia es extremadamente baja, el inicio puberal precoz y el compromiso de la talla final pueden producir impacto psicológico en la calidad de vida y en el desarrollo normal del individuo(AU)

Introduction: Mc Cune-Albright syndrome (SMA, by its acronym in Spanish) is a rare entity associated with polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, with the presence of brown spots with milk and also with endocrine hyperfunction. The most common hormonal alteration is precocious puberty. SMA is caused by GNAS1 gene´s activator mutations. Objective: Describe the clinical characteristics of a patient with Mc Cune-Albright syndrome with precocious puberty. Methods: A review of the medical history was carried out as a primary source and all the clinical, biochemical, imaging and genetic elements that made up the comprehensive assessment of the patient were incorporated. Case presentation: A rare case of Mc Cune-Albright syndrome occurs in a seven-year-old girl with Tanner II-III breasts, vaginal bleeding, axillary and pubic hair, brown spots with milk and bone lesions. She is treated with tamoxifen, which has managed to keep the progression of pubertal development slow. Conclusions: Although this entity is benign in nature and the prevalence is extremely low, early pubertal onset and the compromise of the final size can have a psychological impact on the quality of life and normal development of the individual(AU)

Jaffe-Lichtenstein syndrome associated with a simple bone cyst: unprecedented rare case report

Abstract Lesions denominated fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw constitute a diversified group of disorders, in which the normal bone architecture is replaced by fibroblasts, collagen fibers and immature bone. At present, the World Health Organization recognizes four variants of these lesions, namely: bone-cement dysplasia, fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma and Familial gigantiform cementoma. Fibrous dysplasia may present in the monostotic form, affecting one single bone or an isolated craniofacial region; and in the Polyostotic form, involving two or more bones of the skeleton, and eventual association with syndromic conditions. The patient, C.P.G., 43 years old, sought attendance due to symptomatic increase in the region of the mandibular body on the right side. Imaging exams revealed craniofacial areas with ground-glass aspect, beyond the extensive mandibular radiolucent lesion. During the physical exam, spots of the Café au lait type disposed on the right side of the body were identified, in addition to uncoordinated gait with distinct shortening of the right leg. Additional radiographic exams showed evidence of skeletal dissemination of the disease. The patient denied any sexual precocity, and the final diagnosis was fibrous dysplasia, expressed by means of the Jaffe-Lichtenstein syndrome, in association with a simple bone cyst.

Resumo As denominadas lesões fibro-ósseas dos maxilares constituem um grupo diversificado de desordens nas quais a arquitetura óssea normal é substituída por fibroblastos, fibras colágenas e osso imaturo. Atualmente a Organização Mundial de Saúde reconhece quatro variantes destas lesões, sendo elas: a displasia cemento-óssea, a displasia fibrosa, o fibroma ossificante e cementoma gigantiforme familiar. A displasia fibrosa pode ser apresentar na forma monostótica, acometendo um único osso ou a região craniofacial isoladamente, e a forma poliostótica, envolvendo dois ou mais ossos do esqueleto, com eventual associação com condições sindrômicas. Paciente C.P.G., 43 anos, procurou atendimento devido aumento volumétrico sintomático na região de corpo mandibular do lado direito. Exames imaginológicos revelaram áreas craniofaciais com aspecto de vidro fosco ou despolido, além de extensa lesão radiolúcida mandibular. Durante o exame físico foram identificadas manchas do tipo café com leite dispostas do lado direito do corpo, além de marcha descoordenada com nítido encurtamento da perna direita. Novos exames radiográficos evidenciaram a disseminação esquelética da doença. O paciente negou qualquer precocidade sexual e o diagnóstico final foi de displasia fibrosa, expressa por meio da síndrome de Jaffe-Linchtenstein, em associação com um cisto ósseo simples.

Displasia fibrosa poliostótica: revisión de la literatura y reporte de caso / Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia: literature review and case report

La displasia fibrosa (DF) es una enfermedad rara causada por una mutación genética esporádica y congénita donde existe un trastorno en la maduración del mesénquima óseo. Se presenta un paciente de sexo masculino de 27 años, con antecedentes de fractura de tabique nasal y dolor en la región frontal asociada a náuseas e imposibilidad para caminar desde hace ocho años. Al examen físico se encuentra asimetría craneofacial, disminución de la agudeza visual e hipoacusia bilateral. La resonancia magnética cerebral revela hiperostosis y disminución de volumen del cerebro, cerebelo y senos paranasales. La exploración radiológica revela aumento difuso del volumen del componente medular óseo con compromiso poliostótico. Se diagnostica displasia fibrosa ósea poliostótica sobre la base de los datos clínicos y de imágenes. El diagnóstico de este paciente fue tardío. Se ha reportado que, en pacientes jóvenes, el diagnóstico de displasia fibrosa es radiológico y que, en raras ocasiones se requiere biopsia ósea. (AU)

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare disease caused by a sporadic genetic mutation that generates a disruption in the maturation of bone mesenchyme. We report a 27 year old male patient, with a history of nasal septum fracture and frontal region pain associated with nausea, and walking disability for eight years. At the physical examination we found craniofacial asymmetry, decreased visual acuity, and bilateral deafness. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed hyperostosis and decreased volume of brain volume, cerebellum, and sinuses. Skeletal survey revealed diffuse enlargement of the bone marrow component and polyostotic involvement. Diagnosis of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia bone was based on clinical and imaging data. The diagnosis of this patient was late. It has been reported that in young patients FD is diagnosed by radiological methods, rarely requiring bone biopsy. (AU)

Displasia fibrosa craneofacial avanzada por remodelación ósea / Advanced craniofacial fibrous dysplasia of bone remodeling

La displasia fibrosa es un trastorno del desarrollo esquelético del mesénquima de formación ósea que se manifiesta como un defecto en la maduración y diferenciación de los osteoblastos. La displasia fibrosa representa alrededor de 2.5% de todos los tumores óseos y más del 7% de los tumores benignos. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un caso de displasia fibrosa poliostótica en la región craneofacial, al cual se le realizaron estudios de imagen, biopsia incisional para diagnóstico definitivo y remodelación ósea para mejorar el contorno facial y la calidad de vida del paciente.

Fibrous dysplasia is an abnormal bone growth, it causes abnormal growth or swelling of bone maturation and differentiation. Fibrous dysplasia represents 2.5% of all bone tumors and more than 7% of benign tumors. The aim of this report is to present the findings of a polyostotic fibrous dysplasia case in the craniofacial skeleton. An incisional biopsy was done to make the diagnosis, after that, a bone remodeling surgery was performed to improve the facial contour and in general to improve the quality of life of the patient.

Correction of Fibrous Dysplasia through Malarplasty without Internal Fixation

McCune-Albright syndrome: A case report in a male.

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 male patient with MAS having multiple cafι-au-lait macules and deforming polyostotic fibrous dysplasia involving long bones of the limbs, skull and spine without any endocrine abnormality. Severe bone deformities involving almost all bones have not been described previously and this prompted us to present the current case.

Clinical, microscopic and imaging findings associated to Mccune-Albright syndrome: report of two cases

McCune-Albright syndrome is characterized by the triad café-au-lait cutaneous spots, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and endocrinopathies. This article presents two cases of McCune-Albright syndrome in a middle-aged woman and a young girl. Both patients presented café-au-lait spots on the face and other parts of the body and expansion of the mandible with radiopaque-radiolucent areas with ground-glass radiographic appearance, and were diagnosed as having fibrous dysplasia and endocrine disorders. The patient of Case 1 had fibrous dysplasia on the upper and lower limbs, thorax, face and cranium, early puberty, hyperglycemia, hyperthyroidism and high serum alkaline phosphatase levels. The patient of Case 2 presented lesions on the upper limbs and evident endocrine disorders. In both cases presented in this article, the initial exam was made because of the mandibular lesion. However, a diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia must lead to investigation of the involvement of other bones, characterizing polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, which is manifested in a number of diseases. An accurate differential diagnosis is mandatory to determine the best treatment approach for each case.

A Síndrome de McCune-Albright é caracterizada pela tríade manchas café-com-leite na pele, displasia fibrosa poliostótica e endocrinopatias. Este artigo apresenta dois casos de Síndrome de McCune-Albright em uma mulher de meia idade e em uma menina. Ambos apresentavam manchas café-com-leite na face e em outras partes do corpo, expansão da mandíbula com área radiopaca-radiolúcida com aspecto de vidro despolido na radiografia, com o diagnóstico de displasia fibrosa, e desordens endócrinas. O paciente do Caso 1 apresentava displasia fibrosa nos membros inferiores e superiores, tórax, face e crânio, puberdade precoce, hiperglicemia, hipertireoidismo e elevação da fosfatase alcalina no sangue. O paciente do Caso 2 apresentava lesões nos membros superiores e desordem endócrina evidente. Em ambos os casos apresentados neste artigo, o exame inicial foi realizado devido à lesão mandibular. Contudo, o diagnóstico de displasia fibrosa deve conduzir a pesquisa de envolvimento de outros ossos, caracterizando a displasia fibrosa poliostótica, que se manifesta em um grande número de doenças. O diagnóstico diferencial preciso é fundamental para determinar o tratamento adequado a cada caso.

Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia with Cholesteatoma on External Auditory Canal and Mastoid / 대한이비인후과학회지

Fibrous dysplasia of temporal bone is a rare disease that may lead to progressive stenosis of external auditory canal. This stenosis leads to trapping of skin and development of cholesteatoma. Most cases with fibrous dysplasia of temporal bone are monostotic, and the polyostotic type is far more rare. We have experienced a recurred polyostotic fibrous dysplasia with cholesteatoma on the external auditory canal and the mastoid. Our purpose of this paper is to discuss properties and management of this rare disease. A twenty-one-year-old woman who had undergone canaloplasty for polyostotic fibrous dysplasia of right temporal bone and occipital bone 5 years ago returned complaining of intermittent right-sided otorrhea for one year. She underwent canal down mastoidectomy with tympanoplasty type 3 for recurred canal obstruction and developing cholesteatoma. The patient has been followed up regularly for one year. There is no evidence of the recurrence of the disease or associated symptoms. We emphasize the need for a long term follow-up of patients with this disease as cholesteatoma or restenosis may develop insidiously.
