Albright's syndrome with hypophosphatemic rickets and hyperthyroidism--a case report.
In this abstract we report a case of Albright's syndrome associated with hypophosphatemic rickets and hyperthyroidism in a six-year-old girl. She had suffered from repeated fractures of her long bones owing to multiple locations of radiolucent areas and generalized skeletal demineralization. The biopsy in the lucent area revealed histologic appearance of fibrous dysplasia.
