ABSTRACT
The McCune-Albright syndrome is characterized by a triad of café-au-lait macules, bone fibrous dysplasia and hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies. A nine-year-old girl with irregular café-au-lait macules on the left cheek, neck and frontal areas, as well as fibrous dysplasia of underlying bones of the skull is reported. No endocrinopathies nor precocious puberty were found.
