Mazabraud Syndrome: A Case Report
Abstract
Mazabraud’s Syndrome is a rare association of lesions to the musculoskeletal system. It results from the combination of one or more intramuscular myxomas and fibrous dysplasia. We present a case of a 46-year-old man with bone lesions compatible with fibrous dysplasia associated with intramuscular myxoma, configuring Mazabraud’s Syndrome, and a review of the literature.Downloads
