Core Tip

Core Tip: Mazabraud’s syndrome (MS) is a rare, slowly progressive disorder characterized by the coexistence of fibrous dysplasia and intramuscular myxoma. Here, we present two rare young female patients with MS, for whom different treatment strategies such as internal fixation, tumor resection and intravenous bisphosphonate were chosen based on their respective clinical manifestations. To date, only about 100 cases of MS have been reported in the literature, and their standard treatment strategy remains unclear. In view of the fact that this disorder is not well understood, we also systematically reviewed the literature on the managements of this disease.
