Case study on 19-year-old female with Mc-Cune Albright syndrome

Abstract

McCune-Albright syndrome is a genetic condition that affects your skin, bones and endocrine system (endocrine organs). It causes scars on bones, skin pigmentation and elevated function of growth-regulating hormonal glands. This can be mild in few people and quite severe to life-threatening in others. This syndrome can affect any age group of people like children, adults and old population due to some genetic mutations. These mutations can be sudden and unpredictable. We have come across a rare case called McCune-Albright syndrome where a 19-year-old female presented with chief complaints of lump in left breast associated with pus discharge sine a week. There have been changes in the skin and there is no history of retraction of nipple and any swelling in axilla, neck and opposite breast. Patient has gone to the doctor when she found a lump one month back, doctor has advised some of the diagnostic tests but she completely ignored and after one month she came to the hospital and has been admitted in the general ward. She was treated with vitamin supplements, antibiotics, antacids, NSAIDS.). The surgery procedure is simple mastectomy of left breast. This is done due to the fibro adenoma present in left breast. The patient was recovered in 10 days.
