The rare coexistence of intramuscular myxoma (IM) and fibrous dysplasia (FD) is known as Mazabraud's syndrome. IM tends to occur multifocally and is associated most frequently with polyostotic FD in Mazabraud's syndrome. We present an extremely rare combination of a solitary IM and monostotic FD as a variant of Mazabraud's syndrome, and discuss the importance of recognizing this rare coexistence for appropriate management of the patient.

Introduction And Importance: Mazabraud's syndrome is a rare condition, describing the presence of fibrous bone dysplasia and intramuscular myxomas, with an incidence of 1:1,000,000. The aim of this article is to provide a review of the clinical presentation of Mazabraud's syndrome, including indications for surgical treatment, and follow-up strategies.

Myxoma is a rare tumor that can be challenging to diagnose, with imaging findings that can be nonspecific. We present a case of a 21-year-old man who presented with a subacute history of right visual deterioration and proptosis. Imaging showed a large right superomedial orbital mass of 43 × 31 × 24 mm, which enhanced heterogeneously and was eroding the adjacent orbital roof and medial wall.

Background: Mazabraud's syndrome (MS) is a rare and slowly progressive benign disease characterized by the concurrent presence of fibrous dysplasia of bone and intramuscular myxoma, and is thought to be associated with mutations of the gene. To date, only about 100 cases of MS have been reported in the literature, but its standard treatment strategy remains unclear.
Case Summary: We report two cases of MS in young women who underwent different treatments based on their symptoms and disease manifestations.

Article Synopsis
- - Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare bone disorder that can occur in one (monostotic) or multiple (polyostotic) bones and can sometimes be linked to syndromes with additional symptoms.
- - Two syndromes related to FD are Mazabraud syndrome, which features polyostotic FD along with muscle tumors, and McCune-Albright syndrome, characterized by polyostotic FD, early puberty, and skin spots.
- - Diagnosis typically involves recognizing specific bone features in imaging, but MRI can sometimes confuse the condition with more serious issues; catching these disorders early is crucial for effective treatment and minimizing complications.
