ResultsHalf of the 16 patients with polyostotic FD presented with MAS. All patients with MAS (n = 8) had café-au-lait spots, and either gonadotropin-independent precocious puberty (PP) (girls; n = 5) or abnormal testicle structure (boys, n = 3). None manifested hyperthyroidism or growth hormone excess. Mild hypophosphatemia was common (11/16), but none had signs of hypophosphatemic rickets. Craniofacial bone involvement was found in 12 patients (75%); in 5 of these, skeletal lesions were limited to craniofacial area. One child with craniofacial disease had lost vision due to optic nerve damage. Eleven (69%) patients had sustained a fracture at FD lesion, over half of them requiring surgical fixation of the fracture, most commonly in the proximal femur. The first symptoms leading to FD/MAS diagnosis included skull/facial asymmetry (n = 4), PP (n = 3), abnormal gait (n = 3), pathologic fracture (n = 3), wide-spread café-au-lait spots (n = 1), headache (n = 1), and vision loss (n = 1).
