title: Enchondromatosis with features of dysspondyloenchondromatosis and Maffucci syndrome.
abstract: We report a girl with multiple enchondromatosis, unequal leg length, short stature, congenital scoliosis, lymphangioma, and cutaneous hemangiomata. The skeletal findings were consistent with the clinical and radiological features of dysspondyloenchondromatosis except that short stature was not apparent in the neonatal period. Dysspondyloenchondromatosis is a rare disorder, one of the several types of multiple enchondromatosis with spinal abnormalities. In previous reports of this condition the association of vascular lesions usually found in Maffucci syndrome has not been described.
