McCune-Albright Syndrome treatment in Coyoacán

McCune-Albright syndrome is a rare disorder of genetic origin that can affect the bones, the skin, and the functioning of some of the body's glands.

Signs that may be observed: Skin spots with irregular borders, bone changes that make them more fragile and, at times, signs of early hormonal development.

Why it occurs: It arises from a genetic change that happens during development and that is not inherited from the parents nor caused by anything that was done.

Recommended care: The pediatrician directs the child's follow-up, with support from endocrinologists and other specialists depending on the affected organs. If you notice striking skin spots along with signs of early development, raising the matter in a consultation makes it possible to organize the appropriate evaluation.
