title: Maffucci's syndrome. Review of the literature and case report.
abstract: Maffucci's syndrome, a rarely occurring congenital disorder, may present early in life as either a pathologic fracture, an incidental radiographic finding, or primarily as multiple hemangiomas. Patients endure years of orthopedic complications, and are faced with a grim prognosis, with the majority developing either skeletal or extra-skeletal malignancies by the end of their fourth decade.
