ABSTRACT
Gorham's syndrome is a rare disorder involing a proliferation of vascular channels associated with extensive loss of bony matrix. It starts in bone, but it may secondarily involve soft tissue and adjacent bones. Although the osteolysis usuakky arrests spontaneously, its biologic behavior is difficult to predict. The mechanism of steolysis is unkown, and the role of osteoclasts is controverwial We have experienced one case of Gorham's syndrome affecting the scapula and clavicle, which is reported in this paper with brief review of literature.
