Conditions
Summary
Mazabraud’s syndrome is a rare syndrome in which benign intramuscular myxomas occur in association with fibrous dysplasia of bone. (Macfarlane, Lew et al. 2007) There is increased risk of developing osteosarcoma or fibrosarcoma in Fibrous Dysplasia with Mazabraud syndrome. The recognition of this entity is important for appropriate management of the patient. In this project, we will perform genetic tests on 4 patients with Mazabraud syndrome to look for any genetic link between Fibrous Dysplasia (FD) and Intramuscular Myxoma (IM). In order to do genetic study, we need to arrange taking blood sample from these patients.
