We have read with interest the recent case report of Desai et al., on Maffucci's syndrome.1 We have also encountered a similar case with huge soft tissue abnormalities but proportionate to the osseous lesions of the leg and foot (Figures 1 and 2). References of the literature regarding Maffucci's syndrome should include references nos. 2-5, and also that of Mirra et al.,6 which shows a nice image of Maffucci's syndrome.Figure 1. Large osseous lesions of left distal and proximal tibia and fibula with calcifications.Download FigureFigure 2. Huge soft tissue masses of toes with phleboliths.Download FigureMaffucci's syndrome represents a rare congenital long hereditary mesodermal dysplasia, manifested by multiple endochromas and soft tissue hemangiomas. Radiographic abnormalities are characteristic, consisting of typical central or eccentric radiolucent lesions containing a variable amount of calcifications and phleboliths within the affected tissue. Oilier disease may be diagnosed instead of Maffucci's syndrome until hemangiomas are discovered on physical examination. The radiographs reveal endochromas of virtually every bone, as well as soft tissue calcifications or phleboliths. The potential for both bone and soft tissue lesions to undergo sarcomatous transformation in this syndrome has been emphasized. Chondrosarcoma is the dominant malignant tumor encountered.7ARTICLE REFERENCES:1. Desai S, Kubeyinje EP, Belagavi C, Desai S. Maffucci's syndrome . Ann Saudi Med. 1997; 17: 451–3. Google Scholar2.
