Core Tip
Core Tip: Jaffe-Campanacci syndrome (JCS) is exceedingly rare. In this case, a 10-year-old girl with JCS presented with not only non-ossifying fibromas and café-au-lait macules, but also showed features not mentioned before, severe limb pain, and at last resulted in amputation. This case is a big failure with a tragic ending and has revelatory educational value to all orthopaedic surgeons. We aim to share our failures in treatment and remind other doctors that not every JSC grows with bone development and can be self-healing. We highly recommend education on preventing pathological fractures and explaining the consequent serious consequences to the parents is a matter of prime significance. At the same time, prophylactic treatment (restricted exercise, support, or surgery) is also considerable for JSC.
